AI-generated photoshoots, art-directed like a real campaign.

Campaign, fashion and product imagery made with AI and finished by hand: concept, art direction, generation, product integration and retouching, ready for e-commerce, social and ads.

An AI photoshoot replaces the camera, not the creative work. What makes the images usable is the brief, the art direction, keeping your product accurate and the retouching that turns a set into one campaign. That is the part we do.

Not just prompts

Six jobs make an AI photoshoot usable. Generation is one of them.

  1. 01

    Concept

    One campaign idea the images must carry.

  2. 02

    Art direction

    Casting, styling, setting, light and mood, decided before generating.

  3. 03

    AI generation

    Models and scenes generated and directed frame by frame.

  4. 04

    Product & brand control

    Your real product, logo and colours kept accurate.

  5. 05

    Retouching

    Compositing, clean-up and colour, so the set reads as one shoot.

  6. 06

    Final assets

    Campaign-ready files for every channel.

What we can create

Campaign, fashion and product imagery

We start from your product, audience and campaign idea, and art-direct every frame: casting, styling, setting, light and mood. AI generates the models and scenes. Your real product, packaging or jewellery is brought in through reference-controlled generation, compositing or 3D wherever it has to stay exact, and every image is retouched for colour and consistency before delivery.

Who it is for

Brands across India that need a lot of strong imagery, quickly: fashion and jewellery labels, beauty and skincare, food and FMCG, home and interiors, hospitality, and D2C and e-commerce sellers. It also suits building-products and automotive brands that want lifestyle scenes around a product they already photograph or render.

How it works

From brief to campaign-ready images

  1. 01

    Brief

    Your product, audience and campaign, plus references and the channels the images must work on.

  2. 02

    Concept

    Art direction before any generation: styling, casting, setting, light and mood, agreed on a board.

  3. 03

    Generate

    Models and scenes generated and directed frame by frame, then shortlisted against the concept.

  4. 04

    Integrate

    Your real product, packaging or jewellery brought in accurately: reference-controlled, composited or built in 3D.

  5. 05

    Retouch

    Photoshop compositing, clean-up, colour and consistency across the whole set.

  6. 06

    Deliver

    Final images in the formats and sizes each channel needs: web, e-commerce, social and ads.

Product accuracy

When the product must be exact, we don’t leave it to the prompt.

Text-to-image generation invents details. It cannot promise the exact shape of a bottle, the lettering on a pack, a logo or the setting of a stone. For products where those details matter, the product comes from you, not from the model:

  • Reference-controlled generation, guided by your product photographs
  • Compositing and Photoshop, so the real product sits in the generated scene
  • Real product integration, checked against the physical product
  • CGI / 3D, when the geometry itself has to be right — CGI & 3D product visuals

Models and people

AI-generated people are not real models.

We create fashion and editorial looks, lifestyle scenes and campaign models across styling, ages and settings. They are generated characters, not hired models, and they never stand in for a real customer, ambassador or employee.

We describe every image by how it was made (AI-generated, AI-assisted, CGI or photography), so your brand never shows a generated image as a real photograph.

AI concept examples

Different briefs, different photography.

An AI photoshoot should not have one “AI look”. Each brief gets its own photographic language: hard flash for a food brand, a night street for a fashion label, sculpted hands for jewellery. Made by CG iNK with fictional products and generated people, never presented as client work.

Choosing honestly

When an AI photoshoot makes sense, and when it doesn’t

AI photoshoots make sense for

  • Campaign concepts before physical production
  • High-volume social content
  • Seasonal and festive campaigns
  • Location-heavy concepts
  • Sets that are impossible or too expensive to build
  • Lifestyle variations of one product
  • Testing creative quickly before spending on media

A real shoot or CGI may be better for

  • Products where every exact detail must be right
  • Founder-led or personality-led content
  • Food, where authenticity is the point
  • Live events and real property or project documentation
  • Technical products whose geometry needs exact control

We will tell you when the brief is better served by a camera or by 3D, and we can combine them.

Best for Speed, concepts, variations, locations and campaign imagery.Authentic people, real spaces, real events and true physical detail.Precise product geometry, impossible camera angles and technical visualisation.
Watch for Exact product detail needs integration work; it is not documentary truth.Slower and costlier to vary; locations and weather set the limits.Needs a model built first; less suited to people and lifestyle moments.

None of them replaces the others. Many campaigns use two: a CGI product in an AI-generated scene, or a real shoot extended with generated variations.

Only cases whose record names AI work are listed here. The concept examples above are CG iNK’s own and are not client work.

Working together

Concept set, campaign set or ongoing content

  • Concept set — A few directions to test an idea before a shoot or a campaign is committed.
  • Campaign set — An agreed number of final images for one campaign, in every format it runs in.
  • Ongoing content — A monthly volume of imagery for social, e-commerce and ads, in one consistent look.

Priced per project, on enquiry. It depends on the number of final images, how complex the scenes are, how much real-product integration is needed, whether one model must stay consistent across a set, the level of retouching, and where the images will be used.

Questions buyers ask

Is an AI photoshoot the same as photography?

No, and we do not present it as photography. The models and settings are generated. We describe each image as AI-generated, AI-assisted, CGI or photography according to how it was actually made, and we recommend a real shoot when authenticity matters more than speed.

Will my product look exactly right?

Pure text-to-image generation cannot guarantee an exact shape, logo, label or stone setting. Where detail matters we work from your product photographs, packaging files or CAD, using reference-controlled generation, compositing and retouching, or we build the product in 3D. Every final image is checked against the real product.

Are the models real people?

No. AI-generated models are not hired models and do not represent real individuals. We avoid the likeness of real people, and we never present an AI-generated person as a real customer, ambassador or employee.

Can the same model appear across a whole campaign?

Yes, within limits. We build one consistent character for a set and retouch for continuity. A long-running brand face, or content led by a founder or a real personality, is better served by a real shoot.

How is an AI photoshoot priced?

Per project, on enquiry. The price depends on the number of final images, scene complexity, how much product integration is needed, model consistency, the level of retouching and the commercial usage.
