Portrait Generation
5 promptsStudio Key Headshot
1/30✨ What it does

Generate a photoreal headshot of one adult described by [SUBJECT NOTES]: age range, hair, and [OUTFIT]. Seamless [BACKDROP COLOR] paper. One person only, no celebrity likeness, no extra figure. Camera: 85mm at f/2, eyes sharp, mid-chest crop. Lighting: large soft key at 45 degrees left, white fill, weak hair light. Crop 4:5. Natural pores, no plastic skin. This is Gemini image generation from text, not an edit of an upload. Return one still.
Pro tip: Put age and hair in [SUBJECT NOTES]. Empty notes often yield a generic stock face.
Window Seat Reader
2/30✨ What it does

Camera: 50mm at f/2.2, three-quarter, window on the right. Lighting: cool overcast through glass, warm interior lamp far left. Crop 3:2. Photoreal Gemini image generation, fabric knit visible, true rain streaks, quiet domestic mood, not a catalog grin.

Rooftop Golden Hour
3/30✨ What it does

Camera: 35mm at f/2.8, low angle, horizon low. Lighting: warm sun from the left, long shadow of the person on gravel. Crop 4:5. Photoreal Gemini image generation, true roof texture, gentle flare at the edge only, not a fashion spectacle.
Pro tip: Name the city type ('mid-rise brick') so the skyline does not turn into a fantasy.
Kitchen Morning Profile
4/30✨ What it does
Gemini generates a profile of one adult from [SUBJECT NOTES] at a butcher-block with a kettle and [OUTFIT], 4:5. Confirm a true profile with no extra family, then keep the steam-lit still.

Photoreal Gemini image generation, wood grain, ceramic mug unbranded unless [MUG MARK] is set, quiet morning, not a sitcom set.
Pro tip: Say 'true profile' twice if the face keeps turning to camera.
Workshop Dust Shaft
5/30✨ What it does

Camera: 35mm at f/2.8, showing bench, hands and face. Lighting: window shaft is the key, cooler shadows in the shop. Crop 3:2. Photoreal Gemini image generation, real shavings, honest tool wear, no invented power-tool brands on the wall.
Pro tip: Name the object (stool, spoon, frame) so the bench does not fill with random lumber.
Product Generation
5 promptsBeige Pedestal Pack
6/30✨ What it does
Gemini generates [PRODUCT] on a beige plinth with empty air above, 4:5, from [PRODUCT NOTES]. Check shape and logo against your notes, then keep the hero if type stayed sharp.
Generate a product-only image of [PRODUCT] on a beige ceramic plinth, seamless warm grey behind. No people, no extra SKUs. Invent no new label claims; keep shape, color and logo as described in [PRODUCT NOTES]. Camera: 90mm at f/8, front three-quarter. Lighting: soft key upper left, bounce right, soft floor reflection. Crop 4:5 with empty air above. Photoreal Gemini image generation, catalog hero, sharp type, not a 3D toy render.

Cast Iron Skillet Scene
7/30✨ What it does

Photoreal Gemini image generation, food photography, steam optional, no extra plates, no celebrity chef hands.
Pro tip: List two garnishes. A long garnish list turns into a salad dump.
Bottle On Wet Slate
8/30✨ What it does
Gemini generates [PRODUCT] on wet slate with droplets, 4:5, label from [PRODUCT NOTES] only. Read the type, then keep the still if condensation sits on the real pack shape.
Generate [PRODUCT] standing on wet dark slate, fine droplets on the pack, cool studio. No people. Label from [PRODUCT NOTES] only, no invented slogan. Camera: 80mm at f/5.6, slight low angle so the pack feels tall. Lighting: hard rim from behind plus a strip fill on the label. Crop 4:5. Photoreal Gemini image generation, condensation honest, slate texture, advertising wet look without a splash circus.
Pro tip: If droplets hide the logo, add 'dry window over the brand mark'.
Open Box Tissue Reveal
9/30✨ What it does
Gemini generates [PRODUCT] in an open box with [TISSUE COLOR] tissue on marble, 4:5, from [PRODUCT NOTES]. Check the pack structure, then keep the unboxing still if paper fiber looks real.
Generate [PRODUCT] with the lid of its box slightly open, tissue paper in [TISSUE COLOR], product nestled inside, on a marble slab. No people, no extra gifts. Keep structure from [PRODUCT NOTES]. Camera: 60mm at f/4, three-quarter down. Lighting: large soft overhead, gentle bounce, no harsh sun. Crop 4:5. Photoreal Gemini image generation, paper fiber visible, ribbon only if [RIBBON] is yes, unboxing still not a party table.
Pro tip: Set [RIBBON] to no unless you actually use one. Default ribbon often looks generic.
Sneaker On Cinder Block
10/30✨ What it does
Gemini generates one pair of [PRODUCT] sneakers in [COLORWAY] on a cinder block and floor, 3:2. Confirm the colorway, then keep the still if sole texture looks physical and no extra pairs appeared.
Generate a single pair of [PRODUCT] sneakers, one shoe on a cinder block, one on the floor, raw studio concrete. No feet, no people. Keep colorway from [COLORWAY]. Camera: 35mm at f/5.6, slight high angle. Lighting: hard skylight from a high window, hard shadow of the block. Crop 3:2. Photoreal Gemini image generation, fabric and gum-sole texture, no extra pairs, not a lookbook crowd.
Pro tip: Name both shoe colors. 'The sneakers' alone often invents a new colorway.
Interior Scenes
5 promptsEmpty Reading Nook
11/30✨ What it does
Gemini generates an empty reading nook in [SETTING] with [PALETTE] cushions, 24mm and 4:5, straight verticals. Check that no person or family photo appeared, then keep the still if plaster looks real.

Camera: 24mm tilt-shift feel at f/8, verticals straight, shot from the doorway. Lighting: late-afternoon window on the left, lamp off unless [LAMP ON] is yes. Crop 4:5. Photoreal Gemini image generation, real plaster and wood, no celebrity portraits on the wall, no invented family photos.
Pro tip: Say 'untitled book spines' so the shelves do not invent famous titles.
Hotel Bathroom Marble
12/30✨ What it does

Studio Loft Corner
13/30✨ What it does

Camera: 28mm, straight verticals. Lighting: even gallery track lights. Caption line [DATE LINE] only. Photoreal Gemini image generation, readable type at the top, quiet institutional mood.

Style Consistent Sets
5 promptsFour Pack Colorway Set

Pro tip: Name the floor (oak, tile) once and repeat it in each room request.
Outfit Grid Same Face

Pro tip: Lock the facade first ('red brick, black tile, gold sign') before changing season.
Menu Board Three Plates
25/30✨ What it does
Gemini generates three 1:1 plates for [BRAND NAME] on one surface and [PALETTE]: [DISH A], [DISH B], [DISH C]. Compare sidelight and table, then keep the set if no hands appeared.

Lighting: overcast marine, even, a little wind. Crop 3:2. Photoreal Gemini image generation, salt air mood, wood grain, quiet travel editorial, not a cruise ad.
