Tips for Better Portraiture Prompts
Add composition cues — camera angle, framing, and background — to keep Portraiture results consistent across a shoot or series.
Include color palette or texture words to make Portraiture generations feel more intentional and less generic.
Name the exact style or medium up front — e.g. "Portraiture photography" or "Portraiture illustration" — so the AI locks onto the right visual language.
Be specific about subject details (age, pose, expression) to avoid the AI defaulting to generic Portraiture imagery.
