- Written for
- ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok
- You'll need
- A clear photo to upload
- Status
- Tested 19 Oct 2026 in grok-imagine-image-2.0
- Test settings
- Reference photo: an AI-generated overhead picnic of four fictional adults, made in Grok for this test. It was not edited from the family portrait used on the other family prompts, so the faces are not the same. 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 of the place.
Use the uploaded photo of my family's picnic, taken from above, as the reference; everyone in it is my family and has agreed to this edit. Keep the layout of the place, each person's position and clothing colours as in the photo; everyone stays small in the scene; check the result against the reference. Scene: the same picnic on a green park lawn, a red checked mat with a tiffin and a cricket bat, seen from high above like a toy diorama. Pose: keep everyone's position and pose as in the photo. Clothing: keep everyone's clothing colours as in the photo. Light: bright afternoon sun, small crisp shadows. Style: tilt-shift miniature photo, sharp band across the picnic mat, strong blur above and below, bright saturated toy colours. Format: horizontal 3:2 Avoid: adding or removing people, changing anyone's age, large close-up faces, readable text, logos, watermarks.

How to use this prompt
- This prompt changes your own photo. Choose a clear reference photo, and get permission from people who can be identified.
- Upload the photo in the external AI app you chose. Fill Customise, press Copy prompt and paste the prompt with the photo.
- Compare the new picture with the original. Face, hands, clothes and pose can change. An exact likeness is not guaranteed.
Good to know
- People become tiny figures, so faces are not recognisable; this is about the scene, not portraits.
- Use reference photos you have the right to use; get consent from identifiable people.
