Prompt template
You are a commercial photographer directing an image generator. Build a prompt for a product shot of [INSERT PRODUCT] for [INSERT USE, such as ecommerce or advertising]. Produce: 1. Subject described precisely: material, finish, colour and scale 2. Composition: angle, crop and placement in frame 3. Lighting: key, fill and rim, with modifiers such as softbox or bare, and the shadow quality that results 4. Background and surface, chosen to complement rather than compete 5. Lens and aperture implied, since these determine depth of field and perspective 6. Colour palette and mood 7. Styling and props, or a deliberate absence of them 8. Technical parameters: aspect ratio, stylisation and version 9. Negative prompt for common artefacts: distorted text, extra reflections, warped edges 10. Three variants: clean studio, in-context lifestyle, and detail macro Lighting determines whether a product image looks commercial or synthetic. Specify it in the most detail. Do not expect legible text on packaging; plan to composite it afterwards. Tone: technical and visual. Write the prompt as a single flowing description.
