AI is a great tool for removing distractions from a frame or cleaning up skin so we can deliver more refined images. But fully switching to it means losing a part of yourself.
I love the process — our intimate conversations, the transformation of the model and sometimes of myself, the sound of birds in the background, the feeling of sunlight, the smell of flowers. Not everything is always perfect — sometimes the weather is harsh, there are mosquitoes, it’s cold or extremely hot. But the difference is almost like watching a film versus living inside it (almost, because even films are made with effort, energy, concept, and souls behind them).
I don’t deny the usefulness of AI for certain genres or situations, but for myself I choose to remain a creator and a mediator between the viewer and your unique beauty.
