"It gave me the freedom to create the emotion swimwear deserves - without production limits" - Alma Jamak
Alma Jamak founded IONI Swim in May 2025, combining her fashion design background with years of experience at Mytheresa working in luxury private shopping with high-net-worth clients.
Based in Austria — far from beaches and typical swimwear locations — she needed a way to create stunning product imagery without the massive budget traditional photoshoots require. Every image on the IONI Swim website today is AI-generated using Caimera.

Traditional Shoots are expensive, and Slow Moving process
Photoshoot Challenges
High costs and complex logistics of traditional shoots — especially for a swimwear brand based inland, far from suitable locations.
Weeks from brief to final images — too slow for fast-moving seasonal collections.
Achieving diverse model representation without multiplying shoot costs.
Unusable images from styling errors, requiring expensive external retouching to fix.
Disappointment with other AI tools that produced 'avatar-like' or insufficiently human-like model images, failing to meet product selling requirements.
Meta's strict nudity policies restrict swimwear content, archiving posts before they reach the audience.

Existing Solutions & Gaps
Traditional photoshoots were used, but they were expensive, time-consuming, and limited in achieving diversity and consistent new content.
Caimera is used to generate images by uploading existing still-life or model images, or patterns (using the sketch-to-image tool).
The 'edit this image' feature in Caimera is extensively used to change poses, expressions, body angles, and add accessories like jewelry or pareos, maintaining model consistency across shots.
The 'image to video' tool within Caimera creates 5-second video clips from generated images, which Alma then edits to create engaging reels for social media.
Caimera's pre-designed templates are used to generate detailed images, with the ability to add product images and fire prompts directly.
Instagram and Pinterest are used for posting content, with a focus on Pinterest for its aesthetic appeal and higher sales conversion for AI-generated content.

Budget & Timeline
Traditional photoshoots in locations like Bali cost between 15,000 and 20,000, covering travel, accommodation, two models, photographer, styling, hair, makeup, retouching, and licensing. Caimera operates on a subscription model, with options for monthly or annual payments, and offers a startup package that Alma is currently using. Credits do not expire and roll over. Alma has been using Caimera for about a year since March last year, and launched Ioni Swim in May last year.
