UNIVERSAL IDENTITY RULE
Use the uploaded reference photo as the primary identity reference. Preserve the adult woman's recognizable identity, facial geometry, face shape, eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, jawline, cheek structure, skin tone, hairline and distinctive facial characteristics. Keep her unmistakably recognizable as the same woman.
Do not replace her face with a generic AI face. Do not reshape, beautify, slim, enlarge, de-age or substantially alter her facial features. Preserve natural skin texture and realistic facial asymmetry. Only natural changes from expression, lighting, perspective, hairstyle movement and photographic conditions are allowed.
Use the uploaded reference photo as the primary identity reference.
Create a sophisticated evening portrait of an adult woman standing on a quiet private terrace.
She wears a striking red short cocktail dress with elegant tailoring, minimal jewelry and refined heels.
The terrace is almost empty.
There is one small table, two glasses and a few warm lamps.
Her partner is visible far behind her, slightly out of focus, approaching with a drink.
She turns toward him with a relaxed, confident smile.
A gentle breeze moves her hair and the edge of her dress naturally.
The background contains distant city lights without recognizable landmarks.
Use warm practical terrace lighting mixed with cool evening ambient light.
The red dress should be rich and realistic rather than digitally oversaturated.
Natural skin texture, realistic facial detail, accurate hands and realistic fabric.
Use an 85mm editorial perspective.
Do not create a fashion-model pose.
The image should feel like a private romantic evening accidentally captured.Negative prompt

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 ChatGPT (also works with Gemini, 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.
