Best source tips

Use a sharp, well-lit photo with the subject filling the frame; phone originals beat screenshots.
Front-facing faces and clean backgrounds hold identity best.

Prompt customisation

The template prompt is a starting point. Add a line about setting, mood or camera in the tweak field and it is appended to the tuned prompt; you never have to rewrite it. Keep the subject description as-is if you want the look the preview shows.
