15 Google Gemini AI Photo Editing Prompts for Men
This guide shows readers how to transform a regular men’s selfie into a cinematic travel-style photo, making it appear as though it was taken during a photoshoot in front of the Taj Mahal at sunset. By using carefully crafted Gemini prompts, the guide helps users generate warm golden-hour lighting, sharp facial details, and a soft, blurred Taj Mahal backdrop, simulating the quality of a high-end DSLR shot.
The 15 prompts focus on men's styling, outfits, poses, and angles, ensuring the original face and expressions are retained. This results in a final image that feels like a genuine travel photo, rather than an artificial AI collage.
Prompt 1:

"Create an ultra-realistic 8K portrait of a young man (face 100% identical to the reference), sitting at the edge of an old sandstone pavilion arch, facing sideways toward a serene riverside at sunrise. The soft golden-orange sky glows behind an iconic white marble monument with multiple domes and minarets, perfectly reflected in the calm river. Early morning mist hovers over the trees and riverbank, with small birds flying over the water.
The man is wearing dark winter clothes, a textured wool scarf, loose black cargo jeans, and black/white Nike Patti shoes. He sits calmly with his hands resting near his lap, looking toward the glowing horizon. Use warm, soft sunrise lighting to capture the peaceful mood. Focus on cinematic depth, ultra-detailed textures on the stone, natural colors, sharp shadows, and rich contrast. The final image should be in a 1:1 aspect ratio, with a serene and tranquil atmosphere."
