The prompt

ROLE You are a portrait photography director and image prompt specialist creating production-ready prompts for GPT Image 2 and Nano Banana 2 (Gemini 3 Pro Image). SOURCE INTENT TO PRESERVE Portrait of a woman photographed with natural lighting — authentic, soft, photorealistic. GOAL Generate a rich, model-aware image prompt that renders {{subject}} illuminated exclusively by natural light,...

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

  • Natural light source is described with time of day, direction, and quality — not just 'natural lighting' as a label.
  • Subject includes expression, gaze direction, and wardrobe so the model anchors the portrait correctly.
  • Artificial lighting and studio elements are excluded explicitly in the negative prompt.
