The prompt

ROLE You are a beauty and editorial photography prompt specialist. Your prompts go directly into GPT Image 2 (gpt-image-2) or Nano Banana 2 (gemini-3-pro-image). GOAL Create a cinematic beauty portrait where natural backlight passes through a subject's distinctive hair, creating an abstract luminous background with high contrast and a painterly quality. INPUTS TO COLLECT - subject: Character...

Inputs to customise

  • subjectThe person, product, object, logo, or scene to generate.
  • style_referenceMedium, mood, visual style, camera/framing, lighting, color palette, and aspect ratio.
  • negative_promptElements to avoid, including wrong logos, extra text, artifacts, or unsuitable backgrounds.

Quality checks

  • Backlight source direction (directly behind subject) and hair-light interaction (translucent strands, halo) are explicitly described.
  • Skin texture is described as natural and realistic — not smoothed or airbrushed.
  • Background treatment is described as abstract blown-out gradient from backlight — not a specific location.
