# Models

> Pick a preset AI model, reuse your own saved models, or create a brand-new one from a photo or a text description.

Every shoot starts with a model. Fashion Studio gives you three ways to get one: pick from around 85 built-in preset models, reuse a model you've created before, or create a new one from scratch.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the model picker">
    From the Editorial or Catalog Shoot editor, click the **Model** card (it shows your current model, e.g. "Alina"). This opens **Select your model**, filterable by **All**, **Favorites**, **My models**, **Female**, or **Male**, with a search box for finding a specific model by name.

    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Reuse a model you've created before">
    Click the **My models** filter to see only models you've previously generated or uploaded on this account, instead of the full preset library.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Create your own model">
    Click **Generate** on the create tile at the start of the grid to open **Create your own model**. You can either:

    * **Upload** a reference photo of a real person to base the model on, or
    * **Generate** one from a text description — describe the model's looks and face, then narrow it down with **Female/Male**, **Ethnicity**, and **Body size**. Turning on **Character sheet** produces multiple consistent angles of the same model instead of a single image.

    </Frame>

    A model you create this way is saved automatically and shows up under **My models** the next time you need it.
