Test settings
Reference photo: an AI-generated picture of a fictional family of four adults (not real persons), made in Grok for this test. Uploaded with the default copy text unchanged. Aspect ratio 3:2. First result used; resized to 1600x1067 and converted to WebP.
Variability
Faces, poses and small details vary between runs; always compare the result with your own photo.
Prompt
Use the uploaded photo as the reference for everyone in it; everyone shown has agreed to this edit. Keep each person clearly recognisable: face shape, skin tone, hairline, glasses and smile, as closely as the model permits; keep everyone's ages as they are in the photo; exaggerate gently and kindly, never in a mocking way; check the result against the reference.
Scene: the family around a dinner table piled with rotis, dal, rice and a big bowl of kheer, in a cosy cartoon dining room.
Pose: everyone doing something typical: one serving seconds, one telling a story, one sneaking a sweet.
Clothing: outfits from the photo, simplified.
Light: warm, even indoor light.
Style: warm hand-drawn family caricature, big heads and small bodies, soft colours, kind and flattering.
Format: horizontal 3:2
Avoid: mocking exaggeration, changing anyone's skin tone or age, adding or removing people, brand names, logos, extra fingers, text, watermarks.

Customise

For example: rotis, dal, rice and a big bowl of kheer.

For example: one serving seconds, one telling a story, one sneaking a sweet.
