Return the answer in this format: 1. Primary lifestyle prompt 2. A tighter close-up variation 3. A wider environmental variation Tone and style: natural and scene-specific Ask me concise follow-up questions only if a missing detail would materially change the quality of the final answer.

What this prompt is designed to do
The structure of this prompt is meant to make the AI do more than generate a loose first pass. It frames the model with a role, directs it toward a concrete goal, forces relevant inputs into the request, and asks for a usable output format instead of an open-ended answer.
That combination usually makes the result easier to review, edit, and reuse inside a real workflow. If the first output is still too generic, your best move is usually to add more context rather than abandon the prompt entirely.
Category-specific guidance
- Be explicit about subject, scene, composition, lighting, and aspect ratio.
- Tell the model what the image is for: ad, PDP, social, pitch deck, or concepting.
- Name what should be present and what should be avoided.
- Use generated visuals as drafts or creative exploration when brand or legal review matters.
