Pretty sure this packaging illustration is AI

Pretty sure this packaging illustration is AI

Was looking at this pen at the store and the little character drawing looks totally generated. Look at the hand holding the pen it’s just a weird blobby mitten with no actual fingers. Kinda crazy that companies are using AI for packaging now if this is fake.

Do corporate clients actually hire photographers they discovered through LinkedIn cold messages, or is reaching out to HR managers with a portfolio link just a waste of time for creative freelancers?

Three years into freelance photography and I am trying to shift away from weddings and into corporate headshots and event coverage because the contracts are more predictable and the repeat business potential is much higher. The challenge is that messaging HR managers and marketing coordinators through a linkedin outreach automation tool or even manually has produced almost nothing, my DMs are a graveyard of nice portfolio replies that never turned into a second conversation. I cannot tell if I am reaching the wrong people, sending the wrong pitch, or if the corporate market just does not get sourced this way. What is the most realistic path for a freelance photographer to break into corporate clients who are not actively searching but would book if the timing and pitch were right? And separately, is there a way to use linkedin message automation for follow ups without it coming across like mass messages on linkedin that nobody asked for?

Which country has the most beautiful desert landscapes you’ve ever seen?

I’d love to hear your personal opinions! I'm talking about those landscapes where the colors change completely when the sun starts to set. Which desert left the biggest impression on you?

Are customers starting to expect interactive product customization by default now?

we sell customizable home decor and honestly static product photos feel less effective every year.

customers constantly ask for extra angles, color examples, material comparisons, or mockups before purchasing even relatively simple products.

i’ve been researching product configurators because it feels like buyers now expect to actively interact with products instead of passively viewing listings. also random thing i learned recently: people seem far more emotionally attached to products after customizing them themselves, even before checkout. what configurators are smaller ecommerce brands actually using right now without enterprise-level budgets?
