If your AI image prompts aren’t directing the camera OR the subject, you’re simply pulling a slot machine.

Most images I see are drowning in pixels without a plot.

Pretty colors, random objects, and unimaginative slop...
but no composition. No symbolism. No shot sense.

If you want images that actually hit, remember:
✓ Poses speak louder than faces
A gesture can suggest intimacy or scream triumph. Use it.

✓ Objects carry metaphors
The right object punches harder than a caption.

✓ Shot size = story power
Zoom close for truth. Pull wide for awe. Your crop is your voice.

✓ Composition is choreography
Balance, contrast, and emptiness all leverage psychology.

✓ Color is an emotion machine.
Red isn’t red. It’s heat, rage...urgency. Treat it like fire.

Prompting in AI is a language and most people are still babbling.

So we're unpacking 5 (more) creative levers that inject emotion, tension, and depth into any AI visual.

👉 I broke down each one visually in this post. Steal it for yourself.

The secret sauce in AI image prompting?

I’ll tell you.

While most people prompt AI like they’re using a vending machine, the best creators are composing and directing.

They're thinking like this:
Layering = mood and dimension
Focus = emotional control
Texture = tangibility
Film = nostalgia and imperfection
(a)Symmetry = tension and balance

Lazy prompting kills creativity.

Let’s unpack 5 creative levers that inject emotion, tension, and depth into any AI visual.

👉 I broke down each one visually in this post. Steal it for yourself.

Creating images using AI? Easy.
Created great images using AI? Hard.

As a photographer, I can tell you light is *the* most important part. As it turns out, it's not so different with AI.

I'd guess 95% of AI image users don't know how to leverage lighting properly.

So I created this Lighting Pocket Guide for Midjourney beginners and experts alike.

It includes:
❑ Lighting principles
❑ Tips to get the best results
❑ 80+ lighting tokens to experiment with

It's yours for free.

Enjoy! 🧵

But the top 5%? Different breed 🔥

For all you savages out there, I did the work for you and pulled together 33 of the best ones I've found so far.

*PS—You can find these, hundreds more style codes, and all my Midjourney tips, tricks, workflows, prompting GPTs, mood boards, and everything else in my Midjourney Mastery Guide.

Most Midjourney prompts are technically fine. And aesthetically dead.

The difference between “cool image” and “signature look”?

Style codes.

Midjourney eats aesthetics for breakfast. But most creators feed it clichés.

Style is the real unlock.

So I’m sharing 10 photography style codes you can start using immediately. Plus several more looks that are available exclusively in my 1% Midjourney Style Codes set.

The 1% set include 500+ style codes and is 50% off for a few more days.

Grab half-off here: lnkd.in/gREryf4a

Save it. Steal from it. Make it yours.

Rather than burn your own fast hours (and literal ones), I did the work for you.

Here are 16 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 style codes for all you savages out there. cc:
