Tips to Improve
Be Specific: The more details you provide, the better the result. In this example, we were specific about the mood (“mysterious and artistic”), the lighting (“warm with a golden tones”), and even the expression (“moody, calm yet happy and introspective”). These details make the image unique and authentic.
Use Descriptive Keywords: Use keywords that describe the mood and atmosphere, such as “retro vintage grainy,” “romanticising windy environment,” and “deep shadows and contrast drama.” These words guide the AI to capture the right feeling.
Iterate and Refine: Don’t be afraid to try different variations of your prompt. If the first image isn’t perfect, adjust a few words or add new details and try again until you get the perfect result.
