**BATCH GENERATION SCRIPT (Python):**
Generate a property_name directory with 8 standard shots:
1. hero_exterior_day.png
2. hero_exterior_dusk.png
3. living_room_main.png
4. master_bedroom.png
5. kitchen.png
6. pool_main.png

For each: apply base prompt + shot-specific prompt + quality modifiers + negative prompt.
Stable Diffusion API Integration
Works with any SDXL API:
- Stability AI API:
https://api.stability.ai/v2beta/stable-image/generate/core - Replicate:
black-forest-labs/flux-1.1-pro - RunPod: self-hosted SDXL endpoint
- ComfyUI: local generation
Batch Generation
The included Python script (scripts/generate_images.py) takes a property YAML config and generates all 8 standard shots automatically, naming files consistently for Hugo integration.
Example Output
Generated 8 images for a 3BR villa listing in approximately 4 minutes via Stability AI API, costing ~$0.32 in API credits vs. $400+ for professional photography.
