Nano Banana Pro Mirror Selfie Prompt
Structured prompt template for generating realistic smartphone mirror selfies in Gemini
This note provides a structured prompt template designed for Nano Banana Pro and Gemini image generation to create photorealistic mirror selfies. It breaks down generation rules across subject, wardrobe, pose, scene, lighting, and camera settings. It is particularly useful for learning how to enforce reflection consistency and prevent typical AI distortion errors.
The prompt
Gemini | Nano Banana Pro JSON prompt:
subject: adult woman, mid-20s; soft feminine face with defined jawline and high cheekbones; almond hazel-green eyes with sharp catchlights, gaze locked on phone screen reflection; full natural brows; straight slim nose; full nude-pink glossed lips slightly parted; real skin texture with visible pores, subtle cheek flush, no beautify smoothing; platinum blonde long center-parted hair with gentle wave; athletic gym-trained build, natural proportions; confident, playful expression.
wardrobe: black matte bra/lingerie top and matching panties, clean edges, no logos; non-explicit coverage rule; black strappy high-heel sandals with ankle strap, open toe, white pedicure; Greek-key band tattoos wrapping the upper thigh and ankle; minimal rings.
pose_action: mirror selfie, viewer sees the reflection; gray upholstered chair centered before the mirror; seated deep, torso upright, subtle back arch; LEFT leg only extended straight toward the mirror with extreme foreshortening, foot dominating lower-left foreground with ankle tattoo visible; right leg bent and raised on the chair, heel near chair edge; reflection_consistency_rule — extended left foot must match exactly in the reflection, no swapped feet or duplicated feet; left hand holds phone near head height offset so it doesn't cover the face; right index finger near lips; single person only.
scene: modern hotel room; large flat wall mirror with clean white edge, physically correct reflection; background_left — large bed with white and beige/brown accent pillows, dark floor-to-ceiling curtains mostly closed with a thin slit of daylight, warm wall glow; background_center — light wood floor; background_right — wall-mounted TV, long desk/minibar counter with unlabeled scattered items, minifridge area, slim black tripod/light stand, dark wall niche; minimal black track light on ceiling.
rules: no readable text/logos, no watermarks, no extra limbs/toes, keep straight lines straight, reflection integrity.
lighting: warm indoor hotel light + slight daylight spill, warm-neutral, natural shadows, no filters, no heavy HDR.
camera: iPhone 16 Pro vibe, unretouched smartphone photo, low HDR, subtle grain; rear-camera mirror selfie, 1x main camera feel, slight handheld micro-tilt 0–2°; controlled distortion with only intentional foreshortening from the extended left leg; vertical 9:16, full seated body visible, face and foreground foot sharp, background softer; face/skin-priority metering, EV 0.0, ISO 100–320, shutter 1/80–1/200, WB 3800–4500K; mirror distance 2.0–3.0 m, camera height 145–165 cm, pitch 0–3°, pose integrity rule enforced.
