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

  • Candid editorial quality is conveyed through specific framing and movement cues — not just labeled 'candid'.
  • Leica 35mm optical character (focal length, aperture, bokeh quality) is named explicitly to produce the right lens aesthetic.
  • Natural golden-hour ambient light is required with no flash or studio lighting — prevents even flat editorial look.
