07:14

[00:01] carefully because right now I am currently at the Four Seasons in Maui and I am watching something happen in real time with AI that many people don't even know exists. I found a brand new AI business that's making people $2,500

[00:15] a week and this is not saturated. You can go and check all over YouTube and you will not see one person talking about this until right now. Now, I'm not going to drag this video out and make you wait 3 whole minutes just to figure

[00:28] I'm talking about. So, if you want the short and quick answer, it's AI digital photoshoots. Now, I know that sounds simple, but let me show you these receipts because regular people are killing it every single day selling

[00:41] right here that's offering 15 high-quality photos for only $30 and she's delivering a premium look without ever touching a camera. And it doesn't

[00:53] stop at $30. There's also another person that has mini business brand [music] shoots that they are offering all of these professional headshots for people some that's offering elite brand experiences. [music] I'm talking about

[01:07] keep in mind this is all being done without a studio, without a camera, and people don't have to go and buy clothes. They don't have to get their hair done, nails done. They don't have to spend $500 for a shoot. But all of this is

[01:20] being done with AI and it's being created in a matter of minutes. Now, I that was blowing up all over the internet and these things look so real they had people in the comments that were loving it. And this is where the

[01:33] there. They're just looking for somebody to fulfill it. And guess who's about to do that? You. Because I'm about to show you how to get these exact type of it's very important that you know how to talk to AI or you're going to get

[01:47] something that looks like an AI photo or looks like a cartoon, looks like it has a filter on it. All the things that we don't want. So, the very first thing we are going to need to do is head on over to Google Gemini and specifically we are

[02:00] going to be using the Nano Banana tool that's found inside of Gemini. But let You don't have to stay stuck with this on one tool. You can also use ChatGPT to

[02:12] create these type of photos. And honestly, sometimes one may end up one. So, you just have to play around with both of them until you produce But I can't lie, Gemini has definitely been winning for me with the realism and

[02:26] order to create these photos, we are client. They will send you a selfie to use and today's client is going to be none other than me. So, all you have to do is just drag and drop it right here

[02:39] into Gemini or you can select that plus button and then upload files. After this, what we are going to have to do is enter the prompt. Now, today I am giving giving it to you for free. I'm telling you people are out here charging for

[02:54] this, but I want to make sure that you are creating photos that look crisp and expensive. So, this is the prompt that we are going to use right here and I am not going to go through every single thing that's in here because it's a very

[03:06] what's going to give you the result that you're looking for. But let me just show you the main things that we want to make sure it knows. Basically, what you want the facial features to look like. We want it to keep the exact one-on-one

[03:20] facial features of the photo that we are using. You want to make sure you give it the composition that's basically telling it how you want the shot to look like. photoshoot. Then we're going to tell it the backdrop we want. I'm telling it a

[03:33] dark espresso brown hand-painted canvas. We also want to tell it the lighting. That's important when it comes to making this look real. And so, I'm just saying professional loop lighting setup. And when it comes to the wardrobe, you want

[03:46] we want something high-end heavy weave cream linen blazer and a sharp lapel. Now, listen. Don't miss the optics because the optics is telling it how you want this to be captured. So, we want

[04:01] [music] this to be shot on a Sony a7R V. That's going to give that professional headshot that looks like it can be in Forbes. And also the realism. You want to make sure that you tell it things like visible skin pores. You want

[04:14] natural skin oils. This is what's going to take it from that AI look to something that looks like it could have really been taken in a studio. So, once I hit enter, look at what Nano Banana created. This quality right here, come

[04:28] level especially for AI to be doing this. So, it took the very first photo that I used as a little selfie I took in my office and it elevated it. It is giving CEO vibes. You can see the texture of the blazer. This is not your

[04:43] typical AI photo. This is what I call a professional asset and this is why your clients will be willing to pay you 100 plus dollars for these branding sets. You are literally giving the quality of a full production in 15 seconds. And I

[04:56] want to show you another prompt that I am uploading here that is just basically changing the office setup. We want a office photo this time. [music] But once I hit enter, check this out. This still captures the realism here. Now, I don't

[05:10] want us to be stuck inside the office. We're going to step outside real quick those birthday shoots that you see that's also trending all over the internet. And so, here is a quick prompt for that and I'm saying quick, but it's

[05:23] definitely not quick. But again, as you can see, it is breaking down those main components that I told you about as far as the features, the composition, the environment. I'm telling it that I want it to have [music] a massive cascade of

[05:38] deep roses that covers her in a chaise chair. We want to tell it about the lighting. I told you again, this is what's going to change how the photo looks. So, you want to make sure you give it the correct type of lighting.

[05:50] And the wardrobe here, we're going with a heavyweight matte satin black gown. The optics, this one is shot on a Fujifilm GFX 100. I'm even telling it okay? And don't worry, I will put all of the prompts down in the description. But

[06:05] once I hit enter on this, yo. We out here saving lives and saving people money with this. You let me know down in the comments what you think about this "Monique, if this is so easy, why won't people just do it themselves?" And the

[06:19] truth is is because many people are AI illiterate. They just come to these tools and add a photo and just type things like make me look good or give me a professional headshot and they get a professional mess. And so, because

[06:32] they are looking for and struggling, they are willing to pay people that know how to talk to AI and get what they want. Because one thing about it, everybody can buy a camera, but not everybody is a photographer. Everybody

[06:46] can own a stove, but not everybody is a chef. So, everybody can play with AI, but not everybody will produce results of this level. Now, speaking of level, let me show you how you can take your business to the next level and you can

[06:58] stand out and be better than most of the people out there. Now, as I've shown you, many people are using Facebook to promote this business and you can start with that. But the thing is, if you want to charge premium prices, then you need

[07:14] a premium brand. You cannot just be in people's DMs forever. So, I'm about to show you how to create an online AI portrait boutique in less than 60 seconds. And to do this, we will be using Hostinger AI website builder. So,

[07:27] you can just click the link in my description and once on Hostinger, make sure you select claim that deal and we will be going with the business plan so that we can have access to all of the AI tools we need to build our new website.

[07:40] Plus with this one, you will be able to keep 100% of the profits unlike on some of these other platforms that like to take a cut. Now, I always suggest going going to keep more money in your pocket and you get a huge discount right now

[07:55] making this only $2.99 a month. Plus if you use my code JWT8, all caps, then you'll get an additional 10% off. So, when you are done with that, you'll be inside of Hostinger and we are going to go ahead and select create

[08:13] creating a website for myself and we'll use Hostinger's AI website builder. So, on here the only thing they are going to ask you for is your brand name, which I'm going to call this Deluxe AI Photo Lab and then you'll give it a

[08:27] description. For the description, I'll say that this is an online store that's a luxury AI portrait boutique that sells high-end executive branding digital AI lot of fancy words, but it's going to make us a fancy site. And down here

[08:42] before we hit enter, make sure that this add online store box is checked. And in less than 30 seconds, it created an entire online store where we can now sell our AI digital photoshoots. And look at this. This is clean, it's

[08:56] professional, it's luxury. And it tells your clients that you are the real deal. Now, you let me know down below if this is a site that you would buy from because I know I definitely would. But now, what we would need to do is select

[09:09] continue so that we can go ahead and add our first product. So, this is going to be a digital product and to make this really sell, what I would do at this point is make sure you add a before and after picture so that they can see what

[09:23] you're like, "I don't have anything I of yourself and create some photos because you have to be able to show you could ask your mom or your daddy, your sister, your brother, your auntie,

[09:36] your uncle, your neighbor, your pastor, somebody send you some selfies so that you can show a variety of different people. But as far as title, I'm just going to call this the executive branding AI photoshoot and of course I'm

[09:48] going to call this a best seller so that it can attract people's attention. And you want to make sure that you include a description so that people understand what they are buying. And I won't lie to you. ahead also inside of Hostinger,

[10:01] there's an AI writer that you can use and it can write this for you, but I just had it rephrase what Gemini gave me. But so we'll just finish setting up. We can add our price. I'm just saying it's $50, but the price is going to be

[10:14] can offer different type of [music] packages like 10 photos for $99. You could do one photo for $10, $15, [music] just whatever you want to set your

[10:27] digital download to this, but what you can do is just head over to Canva. You can create a PDF, search for something like PDF template something, and you give them instructions [music] like how you want them to send their

[10:43] photos, include the email address that you want them to send photos to. You can tell them things like share their vision, like what they're looking for, any particulars that they want included. You can add all of that right inside

[10:55] [music] the text box that you added to this template. And then you'll go ahead on and download this as a PDF and come right over to Hostinger and upload it purchase, [music] this is what Hostinger will send them. But at this point, once

[11:09] you hit save, you are officially in business. Now as beautiful as the website is that Hostinger AI website builder made for us, of course you're going to want to make some tweaks to it. So you can always edit your website

[11:22] right here and it will allow you to change any section in here. And they also have AI tools that will do pretty much anything for you. Like for instance, this photo. If we don't like the photo, we want to change it. All you

[11:34] have to do is click it, select generate image, and then tell it what type of image to create. I'm saying black woman wearing a black suit sitting in office like that, this is what it made and I replaced the other one. So Hostinger is

[11:49] really making this entire process easy. So now that your website is live and that quality is elite, this is actually where the real work is going to begin because you have to send customers to your site. Now if you want to win at

[12:02] this, you don't have to make this hard. Just ride the wave that's already working. I suggest you do Tik Tok trends. Every time you see an AI image out here blowing up, make sure you're doing it too. And not only doing it, but

[12:15] because remember again, I told you that people are out here struggling to create people to do it for them. And you better look at every holiday as a paycheck. For Valentine's Day, just start showing some couple photos. You got graduations, you

[12:29] you know people ready to get out there and start working. And of course, you up there. You don't even have to be your birthday, but just say today's my for everybody in your family for their birthday just so that you can get

[12:44] exposure. And you can also create luxury travel sets because not everyone can travel. So that will just allow people to see the lifestyle. You just got to get creative with this. And make sure you are staying visible on every single

[12:57] platform from Facebook, Tik Tok, Instagram, even Pinterest. A lot of where many people go when they are looking for inspiration for photo shoots. In fact, I've went there myself. So you can always create some kind of

[13:10] boards for them and then always link it back to your website. And here's a pro tip for engagement. You can offer a photo giveaway. Tell people you're giving away a 10 photo branding set and all they have to do is share your photo

[13:22] and comment AI image. I know you see people doing that all over the internet. it's working. So you want to do it too. The main thing you want to do is play on money resides. [music] So now the only thing that's left for you to do is to

[13:35] get started. I have given you the receipts. I've given you the prompts. I've shown you how to create a really quick, beautiful website. The only thing now that's standing between where you are at this point and where you're

[13:47] trying to be is just action. And listen, I really want you to come back to this video in a couple of weeks. I am holding you accountable and I need you to give us a update. Tell us about your success. I really believe in you because I've

[14:00] seen this work for regular people that did not have this type of a head start. This is not just a side hustle. This has the potential to be scaled into a full-blown agency that can pay you thousands a month and allow you to come

[14:12] and travel the world. So make sure you don't wait and miss this AI window because of course, like I always say, it's closing. So I thank you so much for watching and supporting the channel. Remember, your success is my success.

[14:25] Remember, your success is my success. And until next time, aloha.
