Prompt for AI Image Generation

PROMPT.TXT

Create a realistic formal ID photo of a woman. Recreate the exact face from the attached image with accurate skin tone and lifelike facial details. She has a neat low bun hairstyle with a few loose strands at the sides, natural makeup with soft tones, and a composed expression. She is wearing a black blazer over a light-colored or white inner top. The background should be plain white with balanced studio lighting. The photo should look like a high-quality professional ID or resume headshot taken in a studio.

Why This Prompt Works for Professionals

Creating a believable corporate headshot requires attention to subtle details. Here is why this prompt delivers studio-quality results:

• Hairstyle Specificity: By requesting a "neat low bun with a few loose strands," we avoid the "perfectly plastic" AI hair look. The loose strands add a touch of realism and humanity to the formal style.
• The "Power" Outfit: A "black blazer over a white inner top" is the gold standard for professional attire. It provides high contrast, looks authoritative, and works for any industry.
• Studio Lighting: The instruction for "balanced studio lighting" is critical. It tells the AI to eliminate harsh shadows under the eyes (common in amateur photos) and create a soft, flattering glow.
• Identity Preservation: The prompt explicitly asks to "recreate the exact face." This is designed to work with tools that allow image uploading (Reference Images).

How to Use This for Your Own Face

To get a photo that looks like *you* and not a random model, follow these steps:

• Upload a Reference: In Midjourney, use the image prompt feature (paste your photo URL) and the `--cref` (Character Reference) parameter. In other tools, use the "Image to Image" or "Face Swap" feature.
• Choose the Right Source Photo: Upload a clear selfie where you are facing forward with good lighting. Avoid photos with filters or heavy shadows.
• Aspect Ratio: For a CV or ID, use a vertical ratio. Add `--ar 4:5` or `--ar 3:4` to the end of your prompt.
