Photography Prompt Template

Use Cases

Suitable for Photography AI image generation workflows, with reusable structure for fast iteration.
Best for portrait, fashion, and social campaign imagery.

Notes

Replace placeholders (such as [OBJECT] and {variable}) with concrete subjects and contexts.
Keep core constraints first (composition, lighting, lens, materials), then add style modifiers gradually.
If results become noisy, reduce prompt density and reintroduce key elements step by step.
