Why AI images look fake (and how to fix it)

Most people try to fix AI images by adding more adjectives: *"85mm f/1.4, golden hour, Portra 400, cinematic, hyperrealistic."* This makes it **worse**. That polished, creamy-bokeh, rim-lit aesthetic *is* the AI look. Real photos come from situations, not gear lists.

Photorealistic Skill replaces guesswork with a **repeatable 4-step system**:

Plan a scene the model can't get wrong
        ↓
Prompt it like a real capture (not a render)
        ↓
Review for structural defects & fix locally
        ↓
Degrade the render finish (mandatory post-processing)

Skip any step and the image slips through. Do all four and it passes as a real photo.
