Before and after


Ai Prompt

A striking portrait of [reference image/person], captured in high contrast with cinematic shadows and highlights. The look is confident, timeless, and magnetic. Background is sleek and minimal — dark with a subtle glow — so the face feels like it’s emerging from the frame. Every detail is crisp: sharp eyes, defined features, and a polished finish that gives an iconic, poster-worthy vibe.

Details & Variations

  • Backgrounds: Experiment with glowing neon rim lights, smoky gradients, or subtle cinematic haze.
  • Outfits: Works best with sharp, minimal styles — suits, formal wear, or clean modern fashion.
  • Poses: Straight-on confident look, side profile with shadows, or a dramatic head tilt for extra intensity.

This prompt is perfect for professional portraits, posters, or personal branding visuals. It highlights confidence and strength while keeping the portrait timeless and clean.
