The fusion of beauty photography and AI generated jewelry
At photopia in Hamburg in October 2022, beauty and fashion photographer Ava Pivot and me shot a beauty series during our Dedo Lights session, that we didn't see anywhere at that moment in time. With #Midjourney just getting onto the radar of creatives and the buzz around the service, wether it would be a threat to photography, retouching and the creation of beauty images, we decided to embark on a journey full of curiosity. Seeing Midjourney as another tool in our tool stack and go with the flow. We love new unknown territory. And that is why we decided to challenge the complete team and for the first time use AI-generated jewelry that we created in countless hours of playing with Midjourney's amazing interface on #discord . Hence, our October was full of late-night rendering and retouching sessions, where Ava and me connected while sharing my screen and bouncing ideas and possibilities. The result were 8 unique beauty portraits of our wonderful model Esther. She's wearin
