High-end photo manipulation, commercial retouching, and brand imagery for companies that can't afford an image to look edited. Furniture, beauty, apparel, e commerce, and early stage brands building a visual identity from nothing. Six years of manual compositing and matte painting projects past 500 layers, built by hand before any of this was automatable. Generation gets an image most of the way there, then fails at edge quality, light direction, reflections, and material weight. Every image I deliver is hand finished in Photoshop, which is why the work doesn't have that look. BRAND IMAGERY & VISUAL SYSTEMS This is where I add the most value. I build complete image sets for brands and startups website heroes, product scenes, lifestyle imagery, launch and social assets generated and finished to one consistent visual language. One art direction, held across every asset. Same lighting, same palette, same materials, same mood, whether it's ten images or a hundred. Founders come to me when they have a product and no photoshoot budget, and leave with a full library that looks like a brand rather than a folder of AI outputs WHERE I DO MY BEST WORK Startups & DTC launches โ€” a brand's entire image library built before the product ever meets a camera, website heroes, animations Furniture & home decor โ€” sofas, lighting, decor placed into lifestyle scenes with perspective, contact shadows, and material weight that make a composite disappear. Beauty & skincare โ€” glass, liquid, gloss, and skin retouched so texture survives. No plastic. Apparel & accessories โ€” recolors, fabric swaps, logo and sleeve corrections, a full variant set pulled from one shot. E-commerce catalogs โ€” 200 SKUs that look like they came from the same afternoon and the same photographer. Also strong on jewellery, packaging, and agency overflow work that comes back client ready. WHAT I HANDLE โ€ข Brand image systems and consistent visual styling โ€ข Website, landing page, and campaign imagery โ€ข Complex photo manipulation and scene building โ€ข Product placement into lifestyle environments โ€ข High-end retouching frequency separation, dodge & burn, natural skin โ€ข Realistic color and material replacement โ€ข AI-generated product and lifestyle imagery, commercially usable โ€ข Upscaling โ€ข Brand LUTs, actions, and repeatable edit systems HOW IT WORKS Send me one image or just your product and a reference for the feel you want. I'll tell you straight what's possible, what it takes, and how long including the times the honest answer is a reshoot. Most single images come back within 24โ€“48 hours. Batch, catalog and full brand sets get a schedule before we start. Revisions until it's right, layered files on request. My best results come from retainers and ongoing work. Once I've learned your shadow language, your color targets, and the note your team always sends back, turnaround drops and you stop having to check. TOOLS Every image finishes in Photoshop. Ahead of that: Nano Banana 2 and Seedream for scene building, Flux Kontext for controlled edits and variant sets, Midjourney for concept direction, Topaz for uprez. Reference locked generation is what keeps fifty imaes looking like one brand instead of fifty experiments. I reevaluate that stack every few months. Most of what was essential a year ago isn't, and hiring someone who hasn't noticed is how you end up with images that look like everyone else's. Salman

I create AI-generated images that look indistinguishable from real photography โ€” because I think like a photographer, not a software operator. 10+ years behind a real camera means I understand light, composition, and storytelling at a level most AI artists simply don't have. That's the difference between generic AI content and work that actually sells. โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ” PROBLEMS I SOLVE: โœ— No budget for a professional photo shoot? โœ“ I deliver campaign-quality visuals in 24โ€“48 hours โ€” at a fraction of the cost. โœ— Your product photos look cheap and generic? โœ“ I create photorealistic imagery that makes your brand look like a million dollars. โœ— Need consistent content at scale but can't shoot every week? โœ“ I build full visual systems โ€” same style, same quality, unlimited output. โœ— Your ads aren't stopping the scroll? โœ“ I create Meta and Instagram creatives built to convert, not just look pretty. โœ— Need a consistent AI persona or virtual influencer? โœ“ Same face, same identity, every single shot. Built for scale. โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ” WHAT I CREATE: โ—† AI FASHION & STREETWEAR CAMPAIGNS Full campaign series โ€” lifestyle editorial, culture moments, hero shots, product in unexpected contexts. Cinematic. Documentary. Any film aesthetic. 24โ€“48hr delivery. โ—† PHOTOREALISTIC AI IMAGE GENERATION Ultra-realistic people, environments, products and scenes. 8K detail โ€” natural skin texture, real lighting, accurate shadows. Indistinguishable from studio photography. โ—† CONSISTENT AI CHARACTER & PERSONA CREATION Full AI influencer systems for Fanvue, OnlyFans, Instagram, TikTok. Same face every shot. Virtual influencers, brand mascots, digital personas built for ongoing content at scale. โ—† AI PORTRAITS & PROFESSIONAL HEADSHOTS LinkedIn, corporate, personal brand. Studio quality without a studio. 8K macro detail โ€” pores, hair strands, iris. โ—† SELFIE TO CINEMATIC AI PHOTO Turn any photo into a professional editorial image. Any style, any location, any lighting. Personal brand, social media, dating profiles. โ—† AI AD CREATIVES โ€” META, FACEBOOK & INSTAGRAM High-converting visuals for performance marketing. UGC-style, lifestyle, product ads. Built to stop the scroll and drive action. โ—† AI PRODUCT & LUXURY PHOTOGRAPHY Any product in any context without a studio. E-commerce, lifestyle, surreal placement, luxury brand aesthetic, Vogue-level editorial. โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ” MY APPROACH: I start by understanding your actual goal โ€” not just "make it look good" but what the image needs to do. Generate leads. Stop the scroll. Sell the product. Build the brand. Every visual decision flows from that. I typically develop multiple creative directions from the start โ€” different aesthetics, angles, contexts โ€” so you test what resonates with your audience faster and find your winning visual language quickly. Every deliverable is production-ready: correct resolution, correct format, correct aspect ratio โ€” Meta ads, Instagram feed, TikTok, e-commerce, print. โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ” STYLES: Photorealistic ยท Hyperrealistic ยท Cinematic ยท Editorial Analog film ยท 35mm ยท Kodak Portra ยท Fuji 400H ยท Kodak Ektar High fashion ยท Luxury ยท Documentary ยท Street ยท Surreal Dark and moody ยท Golden hour ยท Studio light ยท UGC style โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ” TOOLS: Midjourney ยท Flux AI ยท Stable Diffusion ยท ComfyUI ChatGPT-4o ยท Kling AI ยท Runway ยท Adobe Firefly Topaz AI ยท ControlNet ยท IP-Adapter ยท Photoshop Prompt Engineering ยท LoRA ยท Image-to-Image ยท Face Swap โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ” WHO THIS IS FOR: Fashion & streetwear brands ยท Luxury brands ยท E-commerce stores Fanvue & OnlyFans creators ยท Virtual influencer projects Meta / Instagram advertisers ยท Marketing agencies Personal brands ยท Coaches ยท Beauty & skincare brands Anyone who needs photography-quality visuals โ€” without a shoot. โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ” WHAT CLIENTS ACTUALLY GET: โ†’ Visuals that look like a $3,000 shoot โ€” delivered in 24โ€“48 hours โ†’ Multiple creative directions from day one, not one option to approve โ†’ Files ready to publish: correct format, resolution, and aspect ratio for every platform โ†’ A creative partner who asks the right questions before touching a single tool โ†’ No revisions wasted on misunderstandings โ€” I align on the goal first I'm new to Upwork. But I'm not new to this work. 10+ years of professional photography. Studio since 2014. The portfolio speaks for itself โ€” every image in it was created for a real brief, not to impress an algorithm. If you're hesitant because there are no reviews yet โ€” I get it. Message me. Tell me your project. I'll tell you exactly what I'd create and how. First project, full effort. Every time. โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ” If you can describe it โ€” I can create it. Message me. Tell me your goal. Let's make it happen.
