Recommended workflow
- 01
Prepare the input
Choose reference images you have permission to use. For Candlelit Window Romance, prioritize a clear subject and avoid unrelated people or private details in the frame.
- 02
Lock the visual plan
Confirm subject count, framing, scene, and lighting before adding finishing language. Resolve conflicts such as close-up versus full-body composition.
- 03
Adapt for one model
Start with ChatGPT Image. Keep a baseline generation and document the exact model version, references, aspect ratio, and visible settings.
- 04
Revise from evidence
Name the visible failure, change one instruction block, and compare it against the baseline. Keep only revisions that improve the intended criterion.

Prompt-specific quality checklist
- The generated woman and man must be immediately recognizable as the exact same real people shown in the uploaded reference image.
- Facial identity fidelity takes priority over generic beauty enhancement.
- Preserve extremely subtle facial details rather than replacing them with generic attractive facial features.
- Maintain authentic pores, fine lines, skin microtexture, natural asymmetry, realistic skin translucency, and physically plausible light response.
- Do not apply beauty-filter skin, plastic smoothing, artificial symmetry, face slimming, jaw enhancement, eye enlargement, lip enlargement, nose reshaping, or generic model-like facial replacement.
- Preserve each subject's exact natural hair identity from the reference, including color, length, texture, density, hairline, and characteristic volume.
- Individual hair strands must remain photorealistic and react naturally to gravity, body contact, head orientation, and ambient conditions.
Failures to check before publishing
- identity drift
- different person
- generic face
- beautified face
- idealized face
- altered facial anatomy
- altered face shape
Why the editable controls matter
Gender
Required identity direction for the reference subject.
People count
Default is a single uploaded reference person.
Identity or subject drift
Reduce competing style language, improve the reference, and separate stable traits from pose, gaze, and expression.
Composition breaks
Check whether crop, shot distance, aspect ratio, subject count, and required objects can all be satisfied in one frame.
Artificial lighting or texture
Name a motivated light source and believable material behavior before adding grain, grading, sharpness, or resolution terms.
