You can always tell when an image was made by AI. Yours shouldn't be. This is the manual that turns random generation into deliberate photography - light, lens, composition and style, controlled prompt by prompt. The 5-layer system - build every image the way a photographer builds a shot, not the way you roll a dice. The camera controls - light, motion, grain, focal length, film stock, grade: every dial and what it actually changes. The light - 6 lighting recipes and the classic setups, from portrait to product. Composition - 9 ways to compose a frame and 8 reusable blueprints. The genres, with ready prompts - architecture, interiors, landscape, food, sport, still life, portrait, street, editorial: copy, paste, swap the subject. Point of view, movement and scale - from impossible vantage points to the macro and the cosmic. The commercial power prompts - images that sell, and how to keep the same face in every frame. Every chapter includes ready-to-use prompts with the variables to personalize, real images made with those exact prompts (the book is the proof), and the technical reason behind every choice. Built for Midjourney, but the principles carry over to any generator. 201 pages. By Kerstin D. Petrick - AI Skills & Strategy Coach - Contento.Consulting
