The 3-Frame Intent Prompt
Try this today (10 minutes):
- Pick one simple subject (a mug, window light, a tree, your desk).
- Make 3 photos with your phone:
- Wide (context)
- Medium (subject)
- Close (texture/detail)
Then paste this into ChatGPT (copy/paste prompt):
ChatGPT prompt (photographer-friendly):
“Act as my photography coach. I shot a 3-frame series (wide/medium/close) of [subject] in [light: window/overcast/tungsten]. My intent is [calm / dramatic / intimate / graphic].
Give me:
- One composition adjustment to try next,
- One light adjustment (where to stand / angle),
- One edit suggestion (contrast/color),
- A 1-sentence title for the series.
Keep it simple and specific.”
Why it works: you’re using ChatGPT for direction + constraints, not for “making art.” It helps you notice your next move.
