Window-Focused Indoor Portrait Location

Harnesses natural indoor light for intimate, calm, and cinematic portraits.

Prompt Template

Create an indoor portrait centered around natural window light for {{Subject: the subject on the attached photo, e.g. A writer at their desk}}. Recommend shooting with a {{Lens: 50mm - natural room view, 35mm - environmental story}} lens at {{Aperture: f/2 - soft intimate blur, f/1.4 - maximum light depth}}, {{ISO: 200 - indoor sensitivity, 400 - moody shadow detail}}, {{Shutter Speed: 1/160s - standard handheld stability}}. Place the subject at a slight angle to the window for soft shadow falloff. Use {{Diffusion: sheer fabric - for a soft glow, none - for high contrast drama}} to control light quality.

How Variables Work

Variable Syntax

Variables are wrapped in {{ and }} and follow this pattern:

{{variable name: option1, option2, option3 }}

Predefined Variables

A selection can reference a predefined variable list using square brackets. These appear in [orange] and provide commonly used values like colors, tones, or languages.

{{Tone: [tones] }}

Custom Selection Lists

You can also provide an inline list of choices separated by commas.

{{Format: bullet points, paragraphs, numbered list }}
