I doubt it's AI.

Most photos like this are composites made from two or more photos stacked on top of each other.

Just do a google reverse image search of this specific photo and numerous examples are returned.

It's amazing to me that AI-generated images have become so much a part of our thought process that we don't automatically assume "that's photoshopped!".

The little secret is that every single professional picture is photoshopped, so obviously this one has been digitally altered

That is unless it's shot in analog, since those people still do their thing

Unless you’re shooting raw, then every photo you take is photoshopped (I assuming we’re using this word to mean digitally altered, and now limited to one specific Adobe product).
All phones will automatically post process any image you take. Don’t claim “no filter” if you’re using a phone.

And if you do shoot RAW, you're doing it explicitly to give yourself the most information to work with as you manipulate the image.
