In a world where client expectations are higher than ever, a generic, template-driven website built on a platform designed for hobbyists just doesn't cut it. You need something that can translate your unique creative vision into a living, breathing digital experience without forcing you to become a full-time software developer. This is the exact problem that high-performance tools are built to solve. For a long time, there was a massive gap between what you could... read more ›

Your portfolio is your single most important marketing tool. In a crowded digital world, a generic, template-driven website signals a lack of originality. It says you’re willing to fit into a pre-made box. For a serious creative professional trying to build a remarkable career, that’s a non-starter. You need a site that is as unique as your work, one that gives you total creative control without forcing you to become a full-time web developer. This... read more ›

ChatGPT came out in November of 2022, but it didn’t really catch on until GPT 4 in 2024. But the viral “Studio Ghibli” moment in May of 2025 was when AI became truly mainstream, and creatives could no longer ignore it. We’re now on the heels of ChatGPT 5.1, and it’s more clear than ever: there are very real concerns about AI (replacing creatives, ethical issues, etc), but the fact of the matter is that... read more ›

If you saw the recent news about Figma acquiring Weavy (renamed Figma Weave) and thought, "OK but WTF is Weavy?" you're not alone! It's a relatively new, but incredible app. Weavy is a node-based platform engineered for creative teams and enterprises. Think of it less as a single AI model and more as a central hub or workbench that connects various AI models and editing tools into one unified workflow. Instead of jumping between Nano... read more ›

Higgsfield AI is a generative video model and platform designed for creating high-fidelity, controllable, and stylistically consistent video content from text and image prompts. Unlike many early-generation AI video tools that produce short, often disjointed clips, Higgsfield focuses on solving one of the biggest problems for professional use: consistency. It aims to give creators the ability to maintain the same character, aesthetic, and environment across multiple shots, making it a viable tool for narrative and... read more ›

The creative landscape is flooded with AI tools that promise instant art at the push of a button. You type a sentence, you get an image. It's a neat trick, but for a working professional, it's often an incomplete solution. The lack of fine-grained control, the inability to replicate a style consistently, and the "black box" nature of these simple generators make them novelties, not reliable production tools. The real potential of generative AI isn't... read more ›

You've probably seen people talk about "vibe coding." It was original coined by Andrej Karpathy as a tongue-in-cheek term, but it's caught on as a way to refer to the new style of software development where you let AI take the wheel. Essentially, you tell the AI what you want ("an app where I can upload a photo, it adds my watermark, and emails it to my client") and it will do the rest -... read more ›

The debate around website builders is a tired one, especially in professional creative circles. There’s a lingering sentiment, a kind of digital-era snobbery, that if you’re a “real” photographer, designer, or artist, you need a website that’s hand-coded, endlessly complex, or at least built on a platform that requires a PhD in plugins and updates to manage. The perception is that tools like Squarespace are for beginners, for hobbyists—not for serious professionals with a discerning... read more ›

Midjourney is incredible, full stop. With its v7 model and a polished web interface, it’s a creative powerhouse that has set the bar for quality and aesthetic. For a long time, it’s been the undisputed king of AI image generation (and still is IMO). But if you’re on a budget, it may not be an option when the “Mega Plan” is $1,152 a year. That said, if you’re a pro, you’re not just looking for... read more ›

You’ve probably seen a million headlines about "Meta AI." But what may have gotten lost in the shuffle is that there’s an actual app called Meta AI - and that it’s essentially a free version of Midjourney, the incredibly powerful image generation app. And when I say that it's a version of MidJourney, I don't mean Meta knocked it off. I mean it's literally built on MidJourney's technology: they announced a formal partnership between the... read more ›
