About this image

A barber mid-cut in a real modern barbershop — the "bring your own photos" workflow.

How it was made

This is the value prop in one image: a small-business owner's best material is their own real photos. We grounded the scene on a real barbershop interior (a licensed photo of an actual shop — an empty room has no likeness issue) and composited a consistent synthetic actor barber into it. The space is genuinely real; only the person is generated — almost entirely authentic, no photographer required. Shot Leica-style 35mm reportage in the shop's own warm light. (Bonus lesson baked in: we told the model exactly "three bulbs in one even row" so it stopped scattering random lights across the walls.)
