Prompt Tips for Creating Stunning AI Photo Filters

Here's where your personalized products become truly unique: crafting prompts that turn your creative idea into a stunning reality. Think of prompts as instructions to a master artist who can paint in any style but needs your guidance to capture your exact idea.

After hundreds of experiments, we discovered a winning prompt formula. A strong prompt should have three parts:

• Style key: Your artistic direction that sets the entire mood. For example: paint this like Monet would.
• Visual details: The specific touches that make your vision unique: colors, textures, lighting, layouts, and more. This helps to improve consistency among outputs. For example: Keep the original composition and subject placement. TEXTLESS illustration. Light blue sky. Bright color, cool white balance.
• Additional touches: The finishing prompts that eliminate unwanted elements and ensure perfection in every transformation. For example: No text, no letters, no words, no captions.
