AI prompt for creating a photo in front of a room mirror using a camera.

AI prompt for creating a photo in front of a room mirror using a camera.
AI Tool: ChatGPT

Use your own photo as Image 1 for identity and appearance. Use Image 2 only for pose, mirror setup, camera angle, framing and lighting.

The prompt creates a photorealistic 9:16 mirror portrait with your back toward the camera and your face naturally visible in the mirror reflection. It preserves your original face, hairstyle, apparent age, skin tone, facial features and body proportions while adding a subtle, relaxed smile.

You can customize the clothing using the [OUTFIT] placeholder without changing the person's identity. The final image uses warm LED mirror lighting, subtle cool ambient tones, realistic skin texture, natural mirror perspective, cinematic colors, gentle film grain and high-detail photography.
📝 Prompt 1
IMAGE 1 = EXACT PERSON REFERENCE
IMAGE 2 = COMPOSITION / POSE REFERENCE

First, carefully analyze IMAGE 1 before generating. IMAGE 1 is the sole and authoritative source for the person's identity and appearance. IMAGE 2 is used only for pose, mirror, camera angle, framing and lighting.

Create a photorealistic image of the exact same person from IMAGE 1, placed into the composition of IMAGE 2.

STRICT IDENTITY LOCK

Preserve the person's original appearance exactly as visible in IMAGE 1:

* Exact original face and facial structure
* Exact eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, jawline and cheeks
* Exact skin tone and natural skin texture
* Exact apparent age
* Exact original hairstyle, hair length, hairline, texture and direction
* Exact facial hair, if present
* Exact natural body shape and proportions

Do not reinterpret, redesign, beautify, reshape, regenerate or replace the face or hair.

The original face and original hairstyle from IMAGE 1 must remain unchanged.

EXPRESSION

Give the person a very subtle, natural and relaxed smile.

The smile should be gentle and understated, with only a slight upward movement at the corners of the lips.

Keep the original facial structure, lip shape, cheeks, jawline and overall identity unchanged.

Do not create a wide smile, exaggerated grin, teeth-heavy smile or artificial expression.

The person should look naturally calm, confident and slightly happy while looking at his reflection.

COMPOSITION

Recreate IMAGE 2's composition.

The person stands in front of a large rectangular illuminated mirror, with his back toward the camera.

Camera positioned behind the person, slightly to the left.

His face is visible through the mirror reflection.

Both hands rest naturally on the table or counter in front of the mirror.

The real person occupies the left foreground and the reflection appears inside the mirror toward the center or right.

Maintain realistic mirror perspective and reflection.
