ImagenAI is an Israeli-born company that uses AI to improve photographers' workflows. This is our origin story and why we do what we do.
Once upon a time, there was a man getting married.
His name was Yoav.
He and his wife hired Nitzan to photograph their glorious day.
They had a magical wedding.
But for some reason, it was taking over 3 months for the photographs to be delivered.
Yoav, who had a background in artificial intelligence, was naturally curious about Nitzan’s workflows and processes, so they had a conversation.
Yoav decided he wanted to help Nitzan speed up his editing process so he can deliver work faster to his couples.
That is when Yoav and his college friend, Yotam, and Yotam’s childhood friend Ron came together to form ImagenAI.
The three worked together to build a mystical engine designed to learn Nitzan’s editing style.
That way, when Nitzan photographs another wedding, all the photographs are edited the same way he would edit them - but he can set off to do other important tasks he must do in his photography business.
It turned out that ImagenAI saved Nitzan over 75% editing time - and the photographs look like he edited each and every one.
This is the photo editing revolution. Say goodbye to presets and hello to your personalized editing profile with ImagenAI.
ImagenAI never stops learning your personal editing style. This is the future of photo editing.

How AI Can Improve Your Wedding Photography Business with Michael Zawadzki
Join the Imagen Community on Facebook to continue the discussions between episodes.
Talking photographic and photography business workflows with wedding photographer, Mike Zawadzki.
As one of the leading wedding photographers in the world, New Jersey wedding photographer Mike Zawadzki has a distinctive style that helps his couples remember their wedding day memories in a timeless, bold, and genuine way.
Mike has been photographing weddings for 10+ years and enjoys a technically challenging low-light situation as much as he does a stunning once-in-a-lifetime sunset and sky. He typically starts with traditional poses that will make older members of families smile. Then, based on the rapport he builds with clients, he mixes in more personalized and creative shots of couples based on their preferences, and vibe. Mike enjoys meeting new couples and learning about their unique love stories, which helps his subjects feel comfortable in front of his camera no matter how shy or introverted they may feel.
In a society where we are bombarded with negative self-image content on social media, with algorithms that help create false narratives about how we should look, Mike's philosophy in photography and life is to reject this status quo. He firmly believes everyone deserves to have beautiful photographs of themselves no matter what their age, size, race, gender, religion (or lack thereof), or sexual orientation may be. When not photographing weddings, Mike can be found seeking out the best-hidden gems of New Jersey pizzerias and spending quality time cooking delicious impromptu meals with his girlfriend Melanie.
