Portrait prompts
Portrait prompts: studio headshots, street portraits, ID-photo styles and cinematic close-ups. Each spells out the light, expression and lens, so you only change who is in it.

4 tips for Portrait prompts
- 1
Person first, mood second
Age, hair and clothes come first, then a state like “quietly looking out of the window”.
- 2
Light sets the character
Rembrandt light feels calm, a softbox feels clean, neon rim light feels cinematic.
- 3
Give the framing
Close-up, half body or full body tells the model how much background to keep.
- 4
Leave real people out
Describe features instead of naming real people; public works can't be photos of real people.
Questions
- Can I use these prompts as they are?
- Yes. “Create with it” fills in the model and ratio too, and you can copy any prompt to use elsewhere.
- Can I use my own photo as a reference?
- Add it as a reference image on the create page; models that take references keep the person's features as well as they can. Don't publish works made from other people's real photos.
- Can I use the images commercially?
- Images you make are yours, subject to the terms of the model you used. Treat other people's works as references only.
