Matte brown kraft with a tin tie at the top, one small copper foil dot below the name. Standing on pale concrete under soft directional light from the upper left, one gentle shadow to the right. Accurate legible type, 4:5 portrait.

Type on a mirror finish
Product photograph of a polished stainless flask with "NORTHBOUND 1.2L" laser-etched into the metal, the etching reading as a matte frost against the mirror finish rather than sitting on top of it. Controlled studio lighting with a single soft strip reflected down the body and a dark gradient either side, charcoal seamless. Etched type crisp and legible through the reflection, 4:5 portrait.

On shelf, in context
Photograph of a supermarket shelf where four identical jars of "FIELDNOTE" preserve stand front and centre, and every neighbouring product is plain unbranded packaging with no legible text. Warm amber preserve behind glass, a cloth lid cover tied with twine, a small handwritten-style batch number. Cool retail lighting overhead, shallow focus falling off along the shelf, 16:9 widescreen.

Hand for scale
Product photograph of a small amber glass jar held between the thumb and two fingers of a real hand, so the size reads immediately. Short unpolished nails, a healed nick across one knuckle, faint tan line at the wrist. The jar labelled "SALT + PINE" in small caps on a pale ceramic-look sticker. Soft window light from the left, blurred kitchen counter behind, natural skin texture, 1:1 square.

Type that follows the fold
Photograph of a heavy canvas tote carried on a shoulder in afternoon daylight, the bag hanging with real weight so the fabric creases diagonally across the front. A screen-printed wordmark reading "HOLM & FIELD" sits across the middle in a bold condensed sans, the letters bending and breaking naturally where the canvas folds and catching the weave texture in the ink. Natural ecru canvas, deep forest green ink with a slightly imperfect print edge, soft directional sun from the left, blurred street behind, 3:4 portrait.

A menu that reads
Photograph of a small hand-lettered cafe menu board with six lines, each an item on the left and a price on the right: "flat white 3.40", "cortado 3.20", "filter 3.00", "cardamom bun 3.80", "toast jam 4.20", "soup of the day 7.50". Chalk on matte black, slightly uneven letterforms, a thin chalk rule under the heading "TODAY". Warm window light from the left, 3:4 portrait.

Three levels of hierarchy
Close product photograph of a wine bottle label with three distinct levels of type: "CLOS ARENOU" large in an engraved serif across the middle, "Vieilles Vignes" small in italic beneath it, and "2019 . MIS EN BOUTEILLE AU DOMAINE" tiny in letter-spaced caps along the bottom edge. Cream uncoated paper stock, deep green glass, soft raking light picking up the paper texture. Every line crisp and readable, 4:5 portrait.

Body copy that holds up
Photograph of an open paperback lying flat, the right page carrying the chapter heading "SEVEN . THE LONG WATCH" spelled exactly, with the body beneath rendered as even, convincing lines of small serif text rather than readable sentences. Cream bulky paper with a slight show-through, a soft gutter shadow down the centre, one corner turned. Warm lamp light from the upper right, 3:4 portrait.

Matched light composite
Campaign image of a matte olive vacuum flask standing on a basalt boulder, with low sun coming from the right so both the flask and the rock throw long shadows to the left at the same angle. Coastal cliff behind, sea haze, marram grass bending in the same direction as the light falls. Warm rim on the right edge of the flask, cool shadow fill from the sky, everything sharing one light, 16:9 widescreen.
Edit prompt
One light, three products
Product photograph of three bottles from one range standing in a row, each catching the identical soft highlight down the left edge and throwing an identical shadow to the right. Same frosted glass body in three colourways, sage, clay, and bone, each with a narrow label reading "ORIEL" and a different single word beneath: "morning", "midday", "night". Pale putty seamless, controlled and even, 4:5 portrait.

Exploded, with callouts
Exploded product photograph of a mechanical keyboard with its layers floating apart along a single vertical axis in assembly order: keycaps at the top, then the switch plate, the board, and the milled aluminium case at the base, each layer held level and evenly spaced. Exactly four labels connected by fine leader lines read "keycaps", "switch plate", "PCB", "case". Dark slate background with a soft graduated pool of light, precise specular edges on the machined metal, small sans-serif labels set horizontally in warm white, 4:3.

Faded sign on brick
Photograph of a faded painted advertisement on a brick gable wall reading "HOLLAND & SON . ROPE MAKERS", the paint surviving strongly in some letters and almost gone in others, with brick texture showing through the thin areas. Cream lettering on a deep oxide red ground, a drainpipe crossing one word. Flat overcast light, weathered pointing, a bare buddleia growing from the parapet, 16:9 widescreen.
Edit prompt
Two scripts, one sign
Photograph of a small stationery shop sign carrying two scripts on separate lines, "KOMORI PAPER" in clean grotesque capitals above and "こもり紙店" in neat vertical characters to the right of the door.

Both scripts accurate and legible, 1:1 square.

Type around a cylinder
Product photograph of a cylindrical tea tin where the wordmark "VESPERA" wraps around the curve, the letters compressing and softening as they turn away from the camera at both edges. Powder-blue matte tin with a brushed steel lid, a thin gold rule above and below the name. Soft top light with a single specular arc across the lid, shallow depth so the far side of the curve falls off gently, 1:1 square.
Edit prompt
Three panels, one system
Product photograph of a slim cosmetics carton standing upright and turned slightly so three faces read at once. The front panel carries "AUBE" large in a fine geometric sans with "hydrating serum . 30ml" small beneath, the side panel runs a narrow ingredients block as fine text down its length, the top panel carries a small batch code. Uncoated board in soft sage with a warm white flood, one broad soft light from the upper left, a short honest shadow to the right on a stone surface, 1:1 square.

Same person, new scene
Environmental portrait of a woman in her mid-thirties with close-cropped dark curls, a small crescent scar above the right eyebrow, wide-set brown eyes, a gap in the front teeth, and a gold stud in the left ear only. She is now in a workshop doorway at dusk, wearing a canvas apron over a striped shirt, forearms dusty. Warm interior light behind her against cool blue outside, relaxed and unposed, 4:5 portrait.
Edit prompt
Spread across the gutter
Open magazine spread photographed flat, a full-bleed landscape photograph filling the left page and running just past the centre, with the gutter shadow falling through an empty part of the image and no type crossing it. The right page carries a standfirst reading "THE LAST FERRY" with a column of small body text beneath and wide outer margins. Matte paper, soft even light, 16:9 widescreen.
Edit prompt
Masthead over a portrait
Magazine cover with the masthead "KILN" set very large across the top in a heavy serif, the subject's head and shoulder overlapping and partly hiding the bottom of the letters.

Studio portrait on a deep clay-red ground, soft key from the left, 3:4 portrait.

Cover and spine together
Photograph of a hardback book standing at a slight angle so both the front cover and the spine are visible. The cover reads "THE SALT ROAD" in wide-spaced caps over a simple abstract landscape in dusk blues; the spine carries the same title running vertically, smaller, with "ANNIK VOSS" beneath it. Cloth-textured boards, foil-blocked type catching a soft raking light, plain grey ground, 4:3.
