How to Write Nano Banana Prompts
A quick Nano Banana prompt guide — these tips work for portraits, selfies, photo editing, and any other use case.
Use Natural Language, Not Keywords
Nano Banana 2 understands descriptive sentences, not comma-separated keyword spam. Write prompts like you're describing a photo to a friend — "a woman sitting in a sunlit cafe" beats "woman, cafe, sunlight, 4k, masterpiece".
Be Specific About Lighting
Lighting makes or breaks a Nano Banana 2 prompt. Specify "golden hour sunlight from the left", "soft studio ring light", or "overcast natural light through a window" for dramatically better portraits.
Describe the Camera Angle
Control framing with perspective details: "close-up selfie from slightly above", "full body shot at eye level", or "three-quarter portrait, shot on 85mm lens with shallow depth of field".
Add Environment & Context
Rich settings improve realism. Instead of "woman in park", try "woman sitting on a wooden bench in a sun-dappled urban park, autumn leaves scattered on the ground, city skyline in the background".
Specify Clothing & Style Details
Mention specific items, colors, and fabrics for cohesive looks. "Oversized cream knit sweater and high-waisted jeans" works better than "casual outfit".
Control Expression & Mood
Facial expressions and mood cues matter: "relaxed smile, looking away from camera with a candid laugh" or "confident gaze directly at lens, slight smirk, editorial beauty look".
