Ultra Realistic Sunny Cafe Terrace Portrait

Use my uploaded reference photo as the identity reference. Keep the same face and key facial features as the reference (do not change facial proportions, skin tone, eye color, or overall identity). Ultra-realistic, editorial fashion portrait.
Create an ultra-realistic outdoor portrait shot on a sunny café terrace, photographed in a natural 35mm style. The woman is seated at a marble café table, in a refined, relaxed, high-fashion mood. She has long wavy hair with subtle highlighted strands framing her face. She gently supports her head with one hand (elbow resting on the table), with a calm, soft, sophisticated expression. She wears a sheer off-white/dirty-white blouse with delicate ruffles, and soft pink lipstick (natural, elegant makeup).
Scene details: she holds a coffee cup, and on the marble table there are small plates, snacks/pastries, and a pair of stylish sunglasses placed beside her. The background shows lush green plants, blooming jasmine flowers, and elegant European-style architecture (warm stone, refined details), creating a sunny, luxury café atmosphere.
Lighting & style: bright natural sunlight with soft shadows, cinematic yet realistic color grading, high dynamic range, realistic skin texture, sharp focus on the face, shallow depth of field with creamy bokeh, premium editorial look, Vogue-inspired outdoor fashion photography. High quality, 8K resolution, realistic textures, no plastic skin.
Composition: close to medium portrait framing, eye-level perspective, subject crisp and background softly blurred. No text, no watermark, no logos, no extra faces, no distortion.
Generate in vertical 9:16 aspect ratio (Instagram Reel size).

How to Customize This Prompt

You can personalize the same Google Gemini Prompt by replacing small parts, without changing the style:

  • Hair highlight tone: change “subtle highlighted strands” to “caramel highlights” or “ash blonde highlights”
  • Lip color: replace “soft pink lipstick” with “nude peach lipstick” or “rose pink lipstick”
  • Snacks on table: change “snacks/pastries” to “croissant, macarons” or “fruit tart and espresso”
  • Background vibe: replace “European-style architecture” with “Italian street café” or “Parisian terrace”
  • Mood: change “calm, soft” to “confident smile” or “thoughtful gaze”

Keep the line about not changing the face if you are using your own reference photo.
