How to use this AI photo prompt
- Upload a clear reference photo of your face (well-lit, front-facing works best).
- Fill any placeholders on this page, then tap Copy Prompt.
- Paste into Midjourney (also works with ChatGPT, Flux) and generate.
- Keep your face locked - only wardrobe, pose, and scene should change.
Privacy: If you attach a face reference, do it in the AI tool. Codextroop Prompt Library never receives or stores your photos.
Works best with Midjourney / ChatGPT / Flux
Identity-preserving image-to-image prompts need a strong face reference. Avoid heavy beauty filters on the upload and use the negative prompt when your tool supports it.
Tips for better print & merch results
- Match the example aspect ratio when your tool allows it (often 4:5 for portraits).
- If the face drifts, re-upload a sharper photo and keep the same prompt text.
- Copy related print & merch prompts below to try alternate looks with the same identity lock.
