## Quick answer

Start with a real product photo and one campaign format. Generated settings can help a small shop explore art direction, while the original photo remains the reference for product accuracy. The workflow uses manual export and import; no native integration is assumed.

## When to use it

- Seasonal product campaigns
- Social image variants

## Steps

1. **Build a product reference sheet** — Collect your own or licensed product photographs. Record exact colour, dimensions, material, label text, and details the generator must preserve. Choose one output size and three scene briefs. Tool: Notion. Expected output: A reference sheet and three briefs
2. **Generate a small comparison batch** — Check Photoshoot.app's current price and export options, then upload the approved reference and request the three scenes. Save each prompt and original reference alongside its draft. Tool: Photoshoot.app. Expected output: Three traceable image drafts
3. **Reject inaccurate product details** — Compare each image with the real product at full size. Reject changed logos, invented accessories, wrong scale, altered colour, and misleading results. Use a real photo where the product cannot be preserved accurately. Tool: Photoshoot.app. Expected output: An approved image or a reshoot decision
4. **Compose and compare** — Import the approved image into Canva, add verified copy, and export at the target size. Compare with the original-photo version using the same offer and channel; record qualified visits and rejected-image reasons. Tool: Canva. Expected output: Two publishable variants and a comparison log
