Recommended workflow
Work quickly first. Finish at full size.
The most efficient process separates creative exploration from final delivery. Use smaller, faster generations to make decisions before spending time and tokens on final resolution.
Start with the original
Open one photo and choose the most important change. Keep the first request focused so the result is easy to judge.
Generate at 1K
Use 1K while exploring. It usually returns faster and is strong enough to compare composition, lighting, staging, and seasonal changes.
Request 2 options
Two options are a practical starting point. Use 4 when the request is subjective or you want a wider range to compare.
Save the best version
Compare each result with its source, then save the strongest option. The original stays untouched and the saved version can become the source for another edit.
Upscale only the winner
Once the edit is approved, upscale the saved version to 2K or 4K for delivery. This keeps the iterative stage quicker and more efficient.
A strong default
Fast model, 1K resolution, and 2 options. Move to 4 options when the visual direction is subjective. Upscale the saved winner after approval.
Choose a model
Use Fast by default. Choose Studio for complexity.
Both models are designed for professional real estate work, but they are optimized for different kinds of requests.
Fast
Quick everyday editing
- Weather, seasons, and time of day
- Polish, decluttering, and sky changes
- Mood effects and straightforward instructions
- 1K, 2K, and 4K generation options
Studio
Detailed and design-heavy work
- Virtual staging and complex instructions
- HDR balance and difficult window pulls
- Readable text, site overlays, and property lines
- 1K and 2K generation options
Perspective correction, lens correction, and site overlays require Studio. The editor will guide you when a tool needs that model.
Season and time of day
Build the scene in a clear order.
Season, time of day, weather, sky, and atmosphere controls can work together. Start with the broad environmental change, then add only the details the image needs.
1. Choose the season
Select Winter, Summer, Fall, or Spring. For Winter, Default lets the model choose a natural amount of snow, or you can request Low, Medium, or Heavy coverage.
2. Choose the time
Select Golden hour, Sunset, Sunrise, Midday, Blue hour, Twilight, or Night. Night includes an optional starry-sky control.
3. Add atmosphere
Add fog, rain, falling snow, clouds, sky color, sun rays, or seasonal details. Conflicting choices replace each other automatically.
4. Review the whole property
Check lighting direction, shadows, windows, landscaping, rooflines, and materials. Save only the version that remains believable.
Coverage is different from weather
Snow coverage controls snow resting on surfaces. Falling snow controls flakes in the air. Rain, fog, clouds, and sky treatments are also separate choices.
Versions and delivery
Save the decision. Then upscale.
Generated options are for review. Saved versions are the durable edits that stay with your project and can be used for another edit, an upscale, or a download.
Save
Choose the strongest result and save it as a project version. The original remains untouched.
Upscale
Upscale the selected saved version to 2K or 4K after the creative work is approved.
Deliver
Download one image, selected photos, edited files, originals, or an organized project ZIP.
Resolution names describe output tiers. Exact pixel dimensions vary with the image aspect ratio and processing path. Review every upscale before delivery.
Frequently asked questions
Answers for the editing process.
Use these guidelines as a starting point. The best workflow is the one that keeps the property accurate and makes approvals easy.
Why start at 1K?+
AI editing is usually iterative. A 1K result is large enough to judge the creative direction and typically returns sooner. Save higher-resolution generation or upscaling for the option you intend to deliver.
How many options should I generate?+
Start with 2 for a clear comparison. Choose 4 for subjective work such as virtual staging, season changes, or dramatic lighting. Each generated option uses an edit unit, and the total is shown before you generate.
Are generated options saved automatically?+
No. Generated options remain temporary until you save one. Downloading an option saves it first. Saved versions stay with the project while the original remains intact.
Can I edit a saved version again?+
Yes. A saved version can become the source for another focused edit. This is useful when you want to approve a season change first, then make a smaller lighting or cleanup adjustment.
What is the difference between snow coverage and falling snow?+
Snow coverage changes the amount of snow resting on the ground and outdoor surfaces. Falling snow adds visible flakes in the air. They are separate controls and can be combined.
When should I use the drawing tool?+
Use it when the edit applies to one specific object or area. Mark the region, describe the requested change clearly, and avoid marking unrelated parts of the property.
Does WSPR Photo preserve the original?+
Yes. The original stays available for comparison and download. Saved edits are stored as separate versions that can be reviewed or deleted independently.
Should I review AI edits before delivery?+
Always. Check architecture, windows, reflections, landscaping, text, property lines, and any material details that matter to the listing before saving or delivering an image.
