Posed shots look like ads. Candid ones look like a customer. These are the four prompts behind the NOVA bottle set, and every one of the four images is AI.
Phone is fine: daylight from a window, a plain wall or sheet behind, the label facing the camera and sharp. No flash. For a person in the shot, add a character sheet of your model: front, 3/4, profile and a smile.
Gemini or ChatGPT both work. Upload your photo first, then paste the prompt.
One prompt per image. Before you use one, check the label against your real product, letter by letter.
Keep the product 100% identical - same shape, label and colours. The person must be the exact same as in the character sheet.
Energy, sport, launch ads
He stands on a red running track at sunrise, catching his breath and drinking from the bottle, light sweat on his forehead, the low sun flaring behind him, candid sports photography.
Routine and habit
He sits on a gym bench between sets, the bottle on the floor beside his trainers, a towel over his shoulder, moody window light in a concrete gym, candid.
Everyday moments, Stories
Close-up through a car window: he takes the bottle from the cup holder, daylight reflections on the glass, an everyday commute moment, natural and candid.
No person needed
The bottle on a busy work desk next to a laptop, a notebook and earbuds, condensation beads on the bottle, late afternoon light, no person in frame.
What makes them look candid: frame it through something (a window, a doorway), catch a moment instead of a pose, and let the light misbehave: flare, reflections, a little sweat.
The last part is where most sets fall apart. It’s the part we do, from $199.
