Write a clearer editing prompt

Give your photo edit a clear direction with specific, focused instructions.

1. Name the change

Say what you want to add, replace or change. A concrete subject is easier to review than a broad instruction such as “make it better.”

2. Add relevant details

Describe useful details such as material, color, position or background. Keep the prompt aligned with the area you selected.

3. Change one thing at a time

Start with one focused change. Review it before combining several unrelated ideas in a single edit.

4. Compare with your original

Check faces, edges and background details. Refine the instruction if the output changes something you wanted to keep.

Keep your edit focused

Prompts guide a generative edit; they do not guarantee a particular result. Use images you have permission to edit and check the final output before sharing.
