Still Life Studio

Still Life Studio is a ready-made Nodaro workflow in product imagery. Show, don't describe: your product, two props and a mood photo go in as pictures; a hero still life and a matching close-up come out.

How it works

Every object that must look a certain way arrives as a photo, not as words.

1. Product photo — the one thing that never changes.
2. Props 1–2 — objects for the scene, each on a plain background. Leave a slot empty if you like.
3. Mood photo — a photograph with the light and colours you want. Only its atmosphere is used.
4. Brief + Light — a sentence or two and a picker. That is all the writing.
5. Two prompt writers look at every image and write one prompt each.
6. Two images come out: the wide hero still life and a close detail shot. Same scene, same light.

Step by step

Step 1

One clean photo on a plain background. The image models get it as a reference, so shape, label and colour stay exactly as they are. Swap this photo and the whole studio works for a different product.

Step 2

Up to two objects for the scene, each photographed alone on a plain background. A photo tells the model the exact colour, texture and shape — a sentence never does. An empty slot is simply ignored.

Step 3

A photograph with the light, colours and surfaces you are after. The writers borrow its atmosphere — never its objects. Leave it out and the brief and the light picker decide the mood.

Step 4

Plain language, one or two sentences: where the product sits, what is around it, the feeling. No prompt-writing needed — that happens in the next step.

Step 5

Pick time of day, style and direction from the tiles instead of describing light in words. Optional: skip it and the mood photo leads.

Step 6

Both look at every image plus the brief and the light. The first writes the wide hero shot; the second writes a close detail of the same scene. Each prompt names every prop and opens with the product "exactly as in the reference". Open a writer to read or tune its rules.

Step 7

Each image node receives its prompt plus all the reference photos. Hero still life: vertical 3:4 for product pages and feed. Detail shot: square 1:1 for product pages. Same product, same props, same light — a matching pair.
