How to use Photography prompts well
Start with the prompt closest to your workflow, replace any placeholders with your own context, and tell the model what a good output looks like. The fastest improvement usually comes from clearer context, tighter constraints, and a more specific deliverable.
This category is especially useful for composition rules and lighting setups. Treat the prompt as the execution layer, then refine it into a reusable workflow once you know it solves a real recurring problem.
