Create Stunning AI Environments & Composite with Studio Photography with Lindsay Adler

Text to image AI generators can open up creative possibilities for my photography. In this video I take you through the steps I take to combine an AI environment with a real photo shoot. I begin by create an unexpected environment in Midjourney. Next I analyze the light in the scene, and then try to mimic that light in a studio shoot. The next part of the equation is to combine the two assets in Photoshop using generative fill and color grading for more realistic results. This process of combining a real shoot and ‘fake’ environments allows me to expand my creative horizons and stay timely with new capabilities offered by AI. For this shoot I also incorporated the Pantone Color of the Year 2025, Mocha Mousse, to bring in another trend-worthy element to the fashion shoot!
