FAQ

What makes a good food photography AI prompt?

A strong prompt names the subject, visual style, composition, lighting, mood, output format, and any model-specific constraints in clear English.

Can I use these prompts with any AI image generator?

Yes. The generator writes model-neutral prompts first, then adds small notes for tools such as ChatGPT, Midjourney, DALL-E, Stable Diffusion, Ideogram, or Leonardo.

Should I edit the generated prompt?

Usually yes. Treat the output as a polished starting point, then add brand details, exact colors, subject names, or constraints for your final image.
