Make it yours
Realistic iPhone Candid Photography works as-is. These are the safest ways to change it without losing the look.
Swap the setting
Keep the rest of the prompt and replace the location block. The current setting is “small coffee shop morning atmosphere”.
Swap the light
One lighting change is enough to compare takes. Current light: “natural morning light with soft shadows and realistic highlights”.
Change one field
Copy a single group, rewrite it, and generate again so you can see what that field is doing.
| If the result… | Why | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| The result drifts from the preview | Too many fields changed at once. | Reuse Realistic iPhone Candid Photography as-is first, then change one group — subject, light, or setting. |
| Nano Banana 2 ignores part of the JSON | Some models flatten or skip nested keys. | Keep the same values and paste them as a short paragraph instead. |
