Separate photographs become a coherent composition when you give them a shared space. With Seedream 5.5, assign each reference a role, explain where the elements belong, and describe the light that connects them. Then review how they meet: feet on a floor, a vase on a table, or fingers around a handle.
A useful first project has a clear base scene and a small number of additions. The official example below combines a dining room, an adult subject and a flower arrangement. Its value is the visible relationship between the inputs and the finished setting, rather than the number of images involved.
Prepare a scene that can hold the new elements
Choose the background first. Look for a surface or position where the subject can plausibly belong. A full-body standing photograph and a close-up seat at a low table may demand a substantial change of pose. If the pose matters, select a subject reference that shows enough of the body to explain it.
For a product, use a clear photograph showing the side that should appear. Identify the characteristics that must survive the composition: the outline, handle, opening, label and material. Remove irrelevant reference pictures from the brief so they do not compete for that role.
Open Dreamina, select Seedream 5.5 in image creation and add the references. Write their order into your instructions so each image has a stable name.
Turn the references into a placement plan
The annotated input places flowers on the tabletop and the person in the chair at the right. The room supplies the viewpoint and furniture. This is enough to write an explicit composition brief.
Use the room image as the base scene and retain its camera angle. Place the person from the portrait reference in the right-hand chair beside the table. Place the flower arrangement from its reference in a vase on the table. Match the size of the person to the chair and table. Use the room’s soft light on the added elements and keep the table surface visible.
This is a suggested way to express the task in English. When using your own references, replace the subject, positions and lighting description with the actual details you want.
Judge the composition as a whole
In the official result, the person is seated at the right and the vase occupies the table. The table, chairs and hanging lights establish a common setting. You can read the intended placement without seeing the input arrows.
Use the same reading test for your own result. First look at the image at a small size. Does the main relationship make sense? Then inspect the contact points and scale.
Keep a product label readable in someone’s hands
For a coffee campaign image, we supplied three references in order: a fictional adult with short curls, a copper pouch, and a glass conservatory. Each answered a different question. The portrait supplied the face, the pack shot supplied the valve and green label, and the conservatory supplied the viewpoint and light. The prompt specified the relationship the pictures could not supply on their own: place one person left of the path, holding one pouch at lower chest height with both hands and its label facing the camera. Leave the warm doorway visible behind the person on the right.
The finished frame puts both hands around the pouch without hiding “FIELD NOTES COFFEE” or “250 g.” Start your review at the final placement size: can a shopper tell what the person is holding? Then zoom in to check that the fingers meet the pouch and the valve and lettering match the pack shot. If the grip covers the name, ask for lower hand placement before changing the lighting or background.
Repair one relationship at a time
If the whole composition is useful but the vase floats, keep the result and request a correction to its placement and contact shadow. If the person is on the wrong side of the table, identify the desired chair and pose. Include the details that should remain: the room viewpoint, furniture arrangement and other subject placement.
If the new subject no longer resembles the reference, return to the source that best shows the required appearance. Simplify any competing style instruction and state which features define that subject. For a product campaign, the correct silhouette is usually more important than decorative detail in the background.
A result with an unsuitable viewpoint may be easier to rebuild from the original room than to repair through a long sequence of edits. Save the composition you like before making further changes so you can choose the most useful starting point.
Finish the image for its actual use
Review the saved output at the crop and size where it will appear. A contact problem hidden in a wide scene can become obvious in a close product crop. Keep enough space around important objects for the intended layout.
For a product detail design, continue with organizing a photo and benefits into one useful image. For a local finish or color change within the approved scene, use targeted editing.
Should I combine every source in one generation?
Include the references necessary for the composition you are asking for. When one image carries several conflicting instructions, separate its role in the prompt or leave it out. An understandable assignment is more useful than adding another example of the same visual idea.
Can I keep an exact pose while changing the setting?
Use a source that clearly shows the pose, describe it, and inspect the generated body and contact points. The new setting may require adjusted perspective and lighting. If exact photographic preservation is essential, evaluate the result against that requirement before using it.
