# Realistic Content

Our goal is to create authentic, "in-the-moment" snapshots of an influencer's life. Think less like a professional photoshoot and more like a real, candid photo you'd see on a friend's social media feed. This guide will help you write prompts that capture that vibe.

**The Golden Rule: Tell a Story, Don't Just List Facts**

\
Instead of just describing what your influencer looks like, think about what they are doing, thinking, and feeling. A great prompt is a mini-story.

* Bad (Static): "A woman with brown hair and blue eyes."
* Good (Dynamic): "A woman with messy brown hair laughs as she tries to read a map on a windy street corner, her blue eyes sparkling with amusement."

**1. It All Starts with the Vibe: Setting the Scene**

Before you even think about the action, decide on the overall mood or "aesthetic." This is the most important part of creating a unique image.

* Actionable Tip: Start your prompt with a phrase that sets the tone.<br>

Examples of "Vibes":

* A candid, mid-2010s style indoor snapshot...
* A spontaneous, golden-hour selfie on a balcony...
* A moody, late-70s cinematic photograph...
* An energetic, early-2000s Y2K snapshot...
* A relaxed, Japandi-inspired minimalist photo...
* A raw, indie-sleaze flash photo from a night out...

**2. The Camera is Your Friend: Keep it Real**

Your content should feel like it was captured by a real person in a real moment. The "camera" choice is key. For a more natural, candid look, you almost always want to use a "smartphone" or "iPhone" camera.

* Actionable Tip: Mention the camera and how it's being used. This small detail makes a huge difference.<br>

Phrases to Use:

* ...captured with an iPhone.
* ...a spontaneous iPhone selfie.
* ...an off-center, candid iPhone shot.
* ...a slightly blurry, motion-filled flash photo from a phone.
* ...a mirror selfie taken on a slightly cracked phone.

**3. Dynamic Characters: Action, Gaze, and Expression**

A person is more than their hair and eye color. Give your influencer something to do, a place to look, and a reason for their expression.

* Actionable Tip: Combine an action, a gaze, and an expression to bring your character to life.\ <br>
* Breakdown:

Action (What are they doing?):

* casually sipping a glass of red wine
* mid-bite into a shrimp taco
* running joyfully across cobblestone streets
* scrolling through their phone while waiting for a train
* adjusting their sunglasses against the bright sun

Gaze (Where are they looking?):

* gazing off-camera, lost in thought
* looking directly into the camera with a playful smirk
* eyes half-lidded, enjoying the moment
* a piercing gaze upward, above the camera
* looking down at their phone, a soft smile on their lips

Expression (What are they feeling?):

* a genuine, unforced laugh
* a look of serene calm
* a chaotic, raw energy
* a quiet, contemplative gaze
* an ironic, knowing smile

Putting It All Together (Full Example):

"A candid, spontaneous iPhone-style photo of a woman sitting at a tiny outdoor table of a rustic Italian bar. She has wavy blonde hair and wears a wide-brimmed straw hat. She's sipping a small espresso cup with a gentle, content smile on her face as she watches people walk by. She is gazing off camera, lost in thought. The composition is casually framed with a slight tilt, capturing the spontaneous intimacy and effortless elegance typical of authentic iPhone photography, in a charming Italian village."
