Midjourney👫 Unisex3:4Editorial
PROMPT

Ultra-detailed image-to-image editorial travel portrait of [SUBJECT], preserving 100% of the original facial identity: exact bone structure, eye shape and color, eyebrow arch, nose, lip contour, jawline, skin tone, freckles, moles and natural pore texture must remain unchanged, no beautification, no face slimming, no age or ethnicity shift. Position [SUBJECT] on a whitewashed cliffside terrace in Oia, Santorini, body angled three-quarters to camera, one hand resting lightly on a curved plaster railing, chin lifted, calm confident half-smile. Wardrobe: flowing ivory linen outfit (dress or shirt and trouser set), fabric lifted mid-motion by the Aegean breeze, woven straw accessory, delicate gold jewelry. Lighting: low golden-hour sun raking in from camera left, warm rim light tracing the cheekbone and hair strands, soft white-plaster bounce filling the shadow side, amber and cyan complementary grade. Background: cascading blue-domed churches, sugar-cube houses tumbling into the caldera, distant sailboats on glittering water, hazy volcanic cliffs, gentle bokeh. Shot on 85mm f/1.8, shallow depth of field, fine film grain, travel magazine finish. --ar 3:4 --v 6 --style raw

About This Prompt

What This Prompt Creates

This image-to-image prompt converts an ordinary selfie or headshot into a polished travel-magazine portrait set on a whitewashed cliffside terrace in Oia, Santorini. The subject stands against curved plaster architecture with blue-domed churches and the caldera falling away behind them, lit by a low golden-hour sun that wraps warm rim light around the cheekbone and hair. The 85mm perspective and shallow depth of field separate the subject from the village, giving the editorial look of a commissioned destination shoot rather than a vacation snapshot.

How To Use It

  • Upload a clear, front-facing or slight three-quarter photo of the face, then paste the image URL before the prompt text in Midjourney.
  • Replace [SUBJECT] with a short descriptor such as a woman in her late twenties or a man with short dark hair.
  • Add --cref YOUR_IMAGE_URL --cw 100 to lock character likeness, and keep --sref separate if you also want a style reference.

Tips For Best Results

  • Use a source image with even, diffused light. Hard shadows on the source face fight the golden-hour direction described in the prompt.
  • Keep --cw between 85 and 100 for maximum facial fidelity; lower values let the model drift away from the real face.
  • Generate four to six variations and pick the frame where eye shape and jawline match the original most closely, then upscale.
  • Swap Santorini for Amalfi, Mykonos, or Chefchaouen while keeping the lighting and lens language intact for a matching series.
  • For vertical social formats, change to --ar 9:16 and expect more terrace and sky in frame.
