Four habits of great prompts

  1. 01
    Lead with the subject

    Say who is in the frame and what they’re doing first, then add setting and detail — the model will focus on what matters.

  2. 02
    Describe the light

    Words like “soft morning light”, “backlit silhouette” or “neon side light” dramatically improve texture and mood.

  3. 03
    Name the lens and composition

    Photography terms like “overhead shot”, “85mm portrait”, “symmetrical composition” or “negative space” control the structure of the image.

  4. 04
    Say what to keep when editing

    With a reference image, write “keep everything else unchanged” and describe only the part you want to change.
