About this listen

What We Cover in This Episode ✨ How to Use ChatGPT Without Losing Your Voice
  • Why ChatGPT only works well after you’ve built a clear brand foundation (ideal client, tone, values, purpose, mission)

  • The danger of generic AI output — and how to avoid “copy-paste photographer internet voice”

  • How Amber created a custom ChatGPT trained on her messaging

  • Using AI to repurpose one strong message into:

    • IG captions + hooks

    • Email newsletters

    • Pinterest descriptions

    • Blog outlines

    • Sales page copy

  • How ChatGPT can deepen connection while maintaining authenticity

  • Why AI should amplify your voice — not replace it

✨ AI for Editing: Our Experience With Imagine AI

Marie’s workflow:

  • How Imagine edits her galleries in 15–20 minutes

  • Why she barely has to tweak anything anymore

  • Creating separate profiles (studio, outdoor, film stock)

  • The “secret sauce”: continuously feeding Imagine your refined edits so it learns your style

Amber’s experience:

  • Why Imagine didn’t work for her in the past — and what changed

  • The learning curve and how it handles tone curves + background masks

  • Where it excels and where she still fine-tunes things

  • Why it’s saving her after a huge tech issue this month

Key takeaway: Imagine can drastically speed up your editing workflow and improve consistency — especially once your profile has been fully trained.

✨ Voto: AI Retouching That Saves HOURS

Marie’s go-to tools for newborn & family sessions:

  • Infant acne removal

  • Skin evening

  • Double-chin reduction

  • Hair frizz + flyaway removal

  • Eye catchlights

Amber’s approach:

  • Why she customizes a new “preset” for each client

  • Her favorite features: under-eye circle reduction, wrinkle softening, clothing de-wrinkle

  • What she uses sparingly to keep edits natural

  • How Voto saved a wind-blown lavender farm session

  • Why it’s the most user-friendly AI tool she’s tried

The biggest perk: Magazine-quality refinements in minutes — without outsourcing a single image.

✨ The Future of AI for Photographers

AI tools are evolving monthly — and the industry is moving fast. Marie & Amber share why learning these tools now gives you more freedom, more creative energy, and more time to deliver meaningful, elevated work.
