Brand Campaign — Side-by-Side Results
Prompt
"A 24–30-year-old woman with shoulder-length wavy dark hair in a simple white tee and light-wash jeans holds a sleek insulated water bottle mid-sip, glancing toward the phone camera with a relaxed half-smile. Shot as a casual handheld Instagram Story in a bright neighborhood café by a window (soft natural daylight, minimal background blur), with commercial-grade clean lighting and subtle brand-consistent color grading for an aspirational everyday vibe. Include small real details like a laptop, pastry plate, and condensation on the bottle to feel like authentic UGC, not editorial."
