Or actually have photos of people? Or it actually be her.
Like ai is good, but it’s not going to look like you

With stable diffusion you can use real pictures or parts of real pictures and just let AI make up everything around it. It’s not like you’re generating the whole picture. You could, but it wouldn’t be useful for wedding pictures.
Then again it’s a greentext and as we all know: everything on the internet is true.

Eh a good or even average Lora will make a very good image of a real person that’s close to indistinguishable

True, there are some people who don’t have 5 fingers (4and a thumb for you weirdos).
as part of your prompt you can specify digits and use negative prompts to lower the number of digits. On my 2070 I can push out an image every 17ish seconds so having a better cards means you can push out more faster. If the image has an odd digit you can not use it for upscaling.

With this method, I manage to get 14-fingered hands reliably. After that, the results get worse. 15-fingered hands work about 50% of the time. Asking for more fingers usually results in the summoning of a demon octopus, which is annoying to get rid of.
The nurseries and childcare facilities I work with are not thrilled but I love my job.

Why bother with the wedding at all? Just sit on the couch alone and swipe through fake pictures of someone who doesn’t even look like you at a wedding that never happened! That’s where the real savings kick in!
On the plus side, at least Anon can now dispell any rumors about his love life with photos of his TOTALLY REAL marriage to his 14 year old waifu who is actually an 800 year old wizard!

I’m wondering the same thing, and want to believe the story is fake.
Our wedding wasn’t super fancy, but why would I want fake pictures of something that never happened? It doesn’t make sense to me at all

Seems to be a popular part of tourism in the age of Instagram.

When we were picking out a photographer for our wedding, we heard a piece of advice that had stuck with me over the years. Which was to think of wedding photos as an appreciating asset that gets more valuable over time.
You can look at your photos the week after the wedding and they might not seem all that special. The memories are still fresh and not much has changed. But then when you look at them on your 10th or 20th anniversary , it brings up those memories you had forgotten about. It reminds you of happy times with friends and relatives that might be dead now. Fast forward to 50 years later and those pictures might be the most priceless thing that you have.
So yeah… AI photos might fill that Instagram need of modern weddings, but long-term feel completely worthless. Hoping this story is fake as well, but wouldn’t be surprised if there’s some truth to it.

I mean, you always see this around new technology/fads, all the time. When it’s new or ongoing, there’s either an excitement at the novelty or being in the minority of people doing it; people see the chance to do some of the things that fix limitations of the current process and there’s always those willing to try that out.
For a day that’s already compounded with expectation and often hyped as a sort of zenith in one’s life, it’s easy to see being able to customize things exactly to the way you’re having them play out in your head as really alluring.
And, once the hype dies down or we get used to the novel aspects, all the things you mentioned with get greater focus in the general attention, again, and people will likely value those things more (because, ultimately, you’re not wrong).
But I do feel like this is a pretty consistent phenomenon with almost any trend and you always see an uptick of adopters because the ability to solve some pain points is novel.

We’re already reaping the benefits of social media/internet addled brains hitting voting age… I’m not sure ai images are a particularly harmful step from those poisons.

Brides paying for that is the real problem, not the fact that anon photographer is profiting off it.
I make their weddings look like their pinterest dreams, they can look as skinny and hot as they want
The only folks who are losing anything here are photoshoppers.
someguy3@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Lol who needs a wedding? Just AI and VR the whole thing. Wedding of your dreams!
tfw_no_toiletpaper@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I crave the point in time when all content, all images, everything will be AI generated. Nothing will feel real or genuine anymore. People will lose interest and demand imperfections and crudeness again. In short, I’m all for AI acceleration because I fucking hate it
fuzzzerd@programming.dev 2 months ago
Speed running the enshittification of AI would be ideal.
Dicska@lemmy.world 2 months ago
How can you tell if something is (not) real if you have never seen such a thing?
Aggravationstation@feddit.uk 2 months ago
Yea imagine being brought up in a world like that. People would either become expert content analysts or embrace being deluded.
Kacarott@aussie.zone 2 months ago
Just wait until AIs start being AI generated 🤓
Aggravationstation@feddit.uk 2 months ago
No overhead, no cameras.
So if he isn’t taking any pictures at all he must be getting face pics from brides and using them as part of a prompt?
Each to their own but personally I don’t understand why someone would bother paying for pics like this. To my mind the purpose of a picture is so that in the future you can look back at something that happened in the past.
I could understand it being fun to mess around with an AI yourself and make those kinds of pics if they’re the type of thing you’re into. But are people getting pics like OP is making and sharing them? Hanging them on their wall? Pretending they were real? I find that quite sad.
Nfamwap@lemmy.world 2 months ago
People don’t want photos for the memories, they want them for their socials.
I don’t see a problem with anon making a profit from his shallow, vapid customers.
Aggravationstation@feddit.uk 2 months ago
Yea I mean if it sells then go for it. I’m just surprised that people at that level of narcissism are out there. Like their family are going to know the pics are bullshit if they had a real wedding or even if they faked it entirely so they’re paying for something purely to pretend to strangers and acquaintances online or themselves. But maybe I should just embrace it and try to make some money out of this phenomena myself.
bokherif@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Yeah I understand your opinion. But then you know how scummy the wedding industry is. A flower that costs $10, suddenly costs $200 because it’s a bridal flower or whatever
captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 months ago
From what I hear it’s three factors: increased quality control because the customer is less likely to brush things off for their wedding, increased customer service because they will use more of your time and energy and take shit out on you, and finally because they can everyone else is doing it

Ai is cringe
Phil_in_here@lemmy.ca 2 months ago
It is. But if you fully and openly disclose that’s what you’re doing when selling a individual a personalized product for literally their own enjoyment, I don’t see the harm.
Sure, the client isn’t going to tell people that weren’t there that it’s all generated, but what’s the problem? Someone might believe you were media-attractive 10 years ago at your wedding?
Photography probably put a lot of portrait painters out of business, but it didn’t destroy painting as an art form.
Grab that bag, man.
idiomaddict@lemmy.world 2 months ago
photographer is the first thing to cut
I got married for about $3.5k, of which $800 was the photographer and that was a spectacular decision.

empireOfLove2@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 months ago
That seems totally fine. If he is upfront with clients that images are AI generated/uptouched and that is what they are paying for, that’s just called running a business that innovated a saturated market. He found a way to produce a product and do it cheaper than everyone else.
Quacksalber@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
Given that he does photos for 10 brides a day and still has free time, he must’ve been upfront about it.
webghost0101@sopuli.xyz 2 months ago
I don’t understand how because to make people look hot using ai you still need to make real pictures.
So either they just expanded the business with a popular side project or he has customers send their own pictures (which are rarely in the format, proportions, light conditions you need)
Most likely it never happened.
Elgenzay@lemmy.ml 2 months ago
Agreed.
And as long as other people feel the same way, regular photographers will still have clients.
taladar@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
Personally I would be more disturbed if he offered and delivered real photos but never had showed up at the wedding (to my knowledge as the client).
Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 2 months ago
But pretty much all wedding photos are edited, so none of them are real photos.
taladar@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
Plus they are so generic that 99% of people you show them to will have forgotten them a second after the photo leaves their field of vision.
