More than 50% of marketers use AI to create images. However, while AI image generators are incredibly powerful, many teams still get stuck in trial-and-error cycles trying to write prompts that create visuals consistent with their brand.

That's exactly why we put hundreds of prompt variations to the test across real marketing campaigns. What we discovered was this:

  • The right structure, the right descriptors, and the right technical parameters in your AI image prompts can generate compelling visuals that align with your brand identity.  

We've distilled these learnings into actionable AI image prompt templates, with clear guidance on how to adapt each one for your brand and campaign goals.

Each template (blog, social media, website graphics, etc.) includes the core prompt structure, style variations, and examples of how successful marketing teams are using them today.

At a glance: What makes a good AI image prompt? 

A good AI image prompt has four elements:  

[image type] + [subject] + [background setting] + [style]  
For example: "A product photo of running shoes on white marble in a minimalist studio, shot with natural lighting and shallow depth of field." 

This formula works because AI prioritizes the first few words, so you lead with the image type and subject, then build on that with supporting details. 

What are AI image prompts? 

An AI image prompt is a brief set of guidelines that tells the AI exactly the kind of visual you want to create.  

At its core, a prompt bridges the gap between what's in your mind and what appears on the screen. You might describe a mood, specify details, or set a scene. The AI takes your description and transforms it into a visual composition. The more specific and intentional your prompt, the closer the result matches your vision.

How it works in Typeface 

You create images by describing what you want, in everyday language. Rather than relying on designers for visuals every time, you direct an AI agent to create them. If the images must be refined by designers or shared as inspiration for a campaign, your teams can collaborate on one canvas.

You don't need to be a prompt engineering expert — Typeface enhances simple prompts, layering them with details to create polished, aesthetically pleasing images. However, if you've a specific vision in mind, learning how to craft effective AI image prompts can help you achieve precise results on the first try.

How to write good AI image prompts 

AI responds to prompts — image prompts are the raw material. But great images come from more than words alone. They're shaped by your visual strategy and the choices you make as you refine and edit.  

  • Use a creative brief as a starting point  

  • Describe the visuals in clear, everyday language, but make sure to include the essential details that define your idea.

  • Review the visual. If needed, refine your prompt through a few iterations to get the perfect result.  

  • Use built-in AI editing for simple edits and tool integrations for advanced editing.  

Have a strong visual content strategy

With a good AI image generator, anyone can create polished images. The way you stand out comes from something else: audience insights, expertise, and a genuine desire to connect.  

The strategies you’ve in place to create strong visual content also apply to AI generations: 

  • Alignment of visual content with brand mission, target audience, and campaign goal. 

  • Graphic design fundamentals for visually appealing and accessible images. 

  • Platform optimization for the best display and engagement. 

  • Visual storytelling honed through deep audience understanding and professional experience. 

  • Experimentation with trends, when suitable, to stand out. 

Four essential elements of every AI image prompt 

Element 1: Image type (product shot, illustration, photo) 

Element 2: Subject/Main focus (product, person, object, place) 

Element 3: Background setting (environment and context) 

Element 4: Style (artistic approach, lighting, mood) 

AI image prompt formula:    

A [image type] of [subject] in [background setting], [composition style].  

How to bring these elements together  

  1. Be specific. Don’t just say “a dog”— say “a golden retriever.” Instead of “a child skating,” try “a professional photo of a young girl skating.”  
     
    The more specific your prompt, the faster and more accurately the AI can generate an image that matches what you’ve in mind. 

  2. Layer in the details that matter. AI image generators can work with multiple elements to create visuals that have depth and complexity. So, add details, context, and aesthetics for richer, more realistic outputs.  

    Also, AI often prioritizes the first few words in your prompt. That means you should lead with the image type and subject, then build out the supporting details like background, lighting, or mood. 

Example:  

A product shot of wireless earbuds on a matte black surface, captured in soft directional lighting with a clean, modern aesthetic. 

Why it works:  

Leading with “product shot” and “wireless earbuds” helps the AI focus on the right subject and visual tone. 

More examples of better image prompts using specifics plus layers  

Basic prompt:  

A golden retriever 

Layers to add: 

  • Add subject action (what the subject is doing): snoozing on a couch, running through a field, playing fetch with a ball 

  • Add context (what’s happening around the subject): sunlight streaming through a window, autumn leaves falling in the background, a cozy living room with soft lighting 

  • Add style/aesthetic (medium, framing, camera details): high-resolution lifestyle photo, soft-focus natural lighting, wide-angle shot, warm color palette, digital painting style 

Full prompt: 

A high-resolution lifestyle photo of a golden retriever snoozing on a couch in a cozy living room with afternoon sunlight streaming through the window. 

Using the above, you’re much more likely to generate an image that reflects your original intent. 

Basic prompt:  

A young girl skating 

Layers to add: 

  • Add subject action: gliding gracefully on the ice, mid-jump performing a spin, tying her skates before practice 

  • Add context: in an indoor skating rink with spectators, on an outdoor frozen lake surrounded by snow-covered trees, under bright spotlights during a performance 

  • Add style/aesthetic: professional sports photograph, cinematic framing, motion blur effect, soft winter lighting, vibrant color tones 

Full prompt: 

A professional photo of a young girl skating on a frozen lake, with snow-covered trees in the background and soft winter lighting. 

Here again, the specifics plus the layers of detail guide the AI to a much closer output than would have otherwise been possible. 

Iterate and refine 

Your first prompt is rarely your best prompt.  

As Typeface’s Founding Member Frank Chen puts it:

With any AI tools, the key is to iteratively get to the result you want. Modify the prompt, generate it multiple times, and iterate until you get a set of images that you can then filter down to the ones you like.

This approach helps you build a library of variations to choose from, rather than settling for the first result.

5 AI image prompt mistakes that waste your time 

1. Being too vague about composition  

If an AI image generator doesn’t get specific details, its outputs will naturally be generic. For example, “nice background" tells the AI nothing. Specify "minimalist white studio" or "busy urban street scene” to get visuals that align with your project and brand.  

2. Ignoring spatial guidance 

Telling AI where things are and what the environment looks like helps generate images that align with your desired composition, framing, and marketing use case, like social posts or banner ads.  

If you need room for text overlay, specify "negative space on the right" or "centered product." 

Details like “in a minimalist white studio”, “centered on a plain background”, and “wide angle shot” describe the setting, placement, and spatial relationships, resulting in visuals that look intentional and balanced.   

Note: Typeface's Visual Inspiration Studio offers pre-set scenes that you can customize with your brand assets.

3. Requesting text in the image  

AI image generators struggle with readable text. Trying to add it directly often produces unreadable or jumbled results. A better strategy is to generate the image first and then add text using editing tools.  

4. Overloading with contradictory styles

Mixing styles like "photorealistic cartoon" or “watercolor 3D render” confuses the AI. Stick to a clear style so the image generator knows exactly what to create.  

5. Forgetting lighting details  

Lighting defines mood, style, and realism. Include lighting details like “golden hour lighting” or “soft diffused lighting" to generate evocative images or to maintain a unified visual theme across your image sets.  

The Payoff: Benefits of using AI for marketing creatives  

Generative AI tools for designing digital marketing images offer enterprises these main benefits:   

1. Faster content production  

An AI image creator can significantly reduce the time and effort required to produce high-quality visuals for marketing assets. Marketing teams are seeing tangible results when comparing AI to traditional methods for image generation.   

Frank Chen explains:

In scenarios where content velocity is priority and content needs to be produced on a tight budget and timeline, using AI-generated images can help you get to the results you need faster. E2E process from ideation to generated asset is one way to measure efficiency when using AI-generated images vs traditional photography methods.  

This efficiency allows marketers to quickly adapt and maintain a consistent flow of fresh content.    

2. More time for creative experimentation  

By automating the repetitive aspects of graphic design, AI frees up creative professionals to focus on ideation and innovation. One example of this is combining real product photography with AI-generated backgrounds.  

As Chen outlines:  

In Typeface, you can open any existing image and add a product image by adjusting the product image's orientation and size. Once you go ahead and generate, Typeface will adjust the product's lighting and shadows to make it look properly placed in the scene.

This blend of human creativity and machine precision leads to more unique and compelling marketing photos.    

3. Visual consistency  

With brand training and battle-tested prompts, AI can create high-quality, consistent visuals at scale. Here’s how this works with Typeface: 

Your AI image prompts are saved alongside the content you create, making it easy to revisit past prompts as needed. Your teams can reuse or edit them to generate predictable outputs on-demand, self-sufficiently, and of course, at great efficiency.  

You can set up a brand kit in Typeface with visual styles that can guide your image generation to be on brand with a defined style. This reliability minimizes the risk of errors and enables marketers to deliver a uniform visual standard.   

Master AI image generation 

Using AI image prompts to generate your marketing creatives can transform how your brand communicates with your audience.

With the ability to produce realistic images swiftly and effortlessly, Typeface can be an invaluable asset in any marketer’s toolkit. And by adopting this AI for image generation, marketers can streamline content production and explore new creative possibilities for engagement in the constantly changing marketing world.

FAQs 

1. What are AI image generators?    

AI image generators are tools that use artificial intelligence to generate images from text prompts or content templates. They can create anything from photorealistic product shots to abstract art based on your input. Their core strength is interpreting your descriptions to create detailed, accurate images in seconds.   

2. How do you generate good AI images?  

Generating high-quality AI images starts with a good prompt structure: 

 [Image type] of [main subject] in [background scene], [composition style].   

If you're using Typeface to generate images and brand photos, you can use Magic Prompt to automatically enhance basic descriptions with technical specifications and descriptive modifiers.   

3. How do you improve an image with AI prompts?    

Improving AI-generated images with AI image prompts is an iterative process that requires systematic testing.  

  • Start by analyzing what's working and what isn't in your current results. If the composition is good but the lighting feels off, add specific lighting descriptors like "golden hour lighting," "soft diffused light," or "dramatic side lighting."  

  • Be more specific about style elements. Instead of just saying "professional," try "editorial photography with shallow depth of field." Add technical photography terms like "shot with 85mm lens" or "f/2.8 aperture" to achieve more professional results.  

  • Use negative prompts to exclude unwanted elements. If your images consistently include distracting background elements, explicitly mention what you don't want.   

  • Experiment with different aspect ratios and compositions by specifying "wide-angle view," "close-up macro shot," or "bird's eye view perspective."  

  • Change one part of the AI image prompt at a time so you can identify which modifications produce better results. Many teams iterate through 5-10 AI prompt variations before finding their perfect formula.  

To make editing easier, you can use Typeface's advanced features for AI image editing. It offers image editing tools for inpainting, outpainting (using generative AI to extend an image), resizing, and also for adjusting lighting, shadows, and adding/removing specific elements in the AI image.   

4. How long should an AI image prompt be? 

There’s no fixed length for an AI image prompt. What matters most is clarity — describe key details in simple, concise terms so AI understands your intent and creates an accurate image, nothing more, nothing less.  

5. Can you use AI image prompts on any platform? 

Not exactly. While most AI image generators use text prompts as their main input, each platform has its own rules and formatting requirements. Some may include parameters, keywords, or even allow image URLs.  

Different tools also run on different AI models, which interpret language in unique ways. So, a prompt that works perfectly on one tool might not deliver the same results on another platform. 

6. What's the difference between AI image prompts and regular image briefs? 

AI prompts are concise instructions to guide AI that has no prior knowledge of your brand or project beyond what you've provided. Therefore, they rely heavily on descriptive terms, style references, and technical parameters. In addition, these inputs are carefully arranged to help the AI interpret your needs correctly. 

Regular image briefs are written for humans. They’re broader, don't need strict formatting, and are open to creative interpretation — ideal for human creatives who can read between the lines, grasp subtext, and ask clarifying questions. 

7. Do AI image prompts work the same on all generators? 

Each AI image generator has its own architecture, training data, understanding of language, and distinct strengths. The descriptive words you use for one may be interpreted differently in another, so you’ll need to adjust your prompts to get similar results on different AI image tools.   

8. How many times should I iterate on a prompt before starting over? 

Rather than focusing on the number of iterations, focus on making thoughtful refinements each time. Sometimes, even a small tweak can significantly improve your results.  

When you do need to adjust your AI image prompts, make targeted changes rather than starting from scratch. Change one element at a time, adjust the lighting, modify the background, or tweak the composition. This approach helps you understand what works and builds your prompting skills more effectively.  

Restart with a new prompt when the fundamental concept is off, but if you want to preserve the overall aesthetic you've achieved while making specific improvements, use AI image editing instead.   

As Chen suggests: 

If you like most things about an image, but just wanted to change one small part (e.g. remove one object, add something to a specific part of the image), then you can edit the image using Typeface's AI editing tools. If you want to create an entirely new image, you can generate it using a different prompt. 

9. What are some ways to improve your prompts for AI art?  

Here are some ways to improve your prompts for AI images or AI art:  

  • Start by front-loading your most important elements as AI prioritizes the beginning of prompts. Lead with your image type and main subject, then build out supporting details.  

  • It's also a good idea to learn photography and art terminology, as these terms help AI understand professional visual concepts and produce better results.  

  • Build AI image prompt for different campaign types. Develop standardized structures for product shots, lifestyle images, or social media content that you can customize for specific needs. This ensures a balance of speed and visual consistency across your marketing materials.  

  • Study successful examples and reverse-engineer their prompts. When you see an AI-generated image that works well, analyze its components and adapt the approach for your brand. You can build a library of effective descriptors and style combinations that align with your visual identity.  

In Typeface, Magic Prompt enhances your prompts after considering your entire marketing context, not just individual words. It understands campaign types, product categories, and audience segments to build out prompts with relevant marketing and technical descriptors.  

10. Which AI creates the most realistic images?  

The "most realistic" depends on your goal. For product photography, you might prioritize accurate color reproduction and clean backgrounds. For lifestyle images, focus on natural expressions and authentic settings. For brand illustrations, consistency in style may matter more than realism.  

The best AI image generator is one that produces consistent results aligned with your brand standards while fitting seamlessly into your content creation process. Typeface combines powerful AI generation with marketing-focused features and collaborative workflows that help teams create on-brand visuals efficiently.  

Fortune 500 companies choose Typeface for its blend of multiple best-in-class AI models and enterprise-grade customization. Brands report that Typeface-generated product images rival professional photography, while being produced 10x faster and at a fraction of the cost.  

11. What are the limitations of using AI to generate images from prompts?  

Current AI models can struggle with complex text within images, specific brand logo recreation, and highly detailed technical diagrams that require precision. AI also has difficulty with very specific product details or technical accuracy.   

If your marketing requires exact product specifications, or if you want to add text overlays, logos, and other branded assets, it's best to use an AI image editing tool like Typeface.  

Maintaining consistency across image sets can be tricky. Great individual images don’t always align in lighting, perspective, or character appearance. Typeface's Brand Kit addresses this issue by applying brand-trained styles across generated images.   

Despite these limitations, AI image generation continues advancing rapidly, and platforms like Typeface are specifically designed to address many of these marketing-focused challenges.
