Best Practice Guide
Curated from Nano Banana's official best practices to help you generate and edit more effectively
Text-to-Image
Photorealistic Scenes
For more realism, think like a photographer: specify camera position and lens, lighting and mood, materials and details to significantly improve realism.
A photorealistic [shot/framing] of [subject], [action or expression], set in [environment]. Lit by [lighting description] to create a [mood] atmosphere. Shot with [camera/lens details], emphasizing [key textures and details]. Composed at [aspect ratio].
A photorealistic close-up portrait: an elderly Japanese potter with time-worn wrinkles and a warm, wise smile, carefully examining a freshly glazed teacup. The setting is his humble, sunlit studio. Soft golden-hour light pours through the window, highlighting the clay's delicate texture. Shot on an 85mm portrait lens with gently blurred bokeh. The overall mood is serene and seasoned. Vertical portrait composition.
Stylized Illustrations & Stickers
For stickers, icons, or assets, specify the style clearly; if you need cutouts or layout work later, request a white background.
A [style] sticker of [subject] featuring [key traits] and [palette]. Use [line style] and [shading/coloring style]. Background must be white.
Precise Text in Images
Specify the exact text to render, the font style, and the overall layout to steer the model toward the expected result.
Product Mockups & Commercial Photography
For e-commerce, ads, or branding assets, specify background material/surface, lighting setup, camera angle, and the details to emphasize.
Edit Images with Text
Add or Remove Elements
Provide an image and describe the changes directly. The model analyzes the original style, lighting, and perspective for natural edits, and maintains character consistency across a series.
Using the provided [subject] image, [add/remove/modify] [element]. Ensure the changes [blend naturally with the original style/lighting/perspective].
Using my provided photo of a cat, add a small knitted wizard hat on the cat's head. Make it look naturally worn and comfortable, and match the soft lighting of the photo.
Inpainting (Edit a Selected Area)
You can edit only a specific element of the image while keeping everything else unchanged.
Using the provided image, change only [specific element] to [new element/description]. Keep all other aspects of the image (style, lighting, and composition) exactly the same.
Style Transfer
Provide a photo and request a redraw in the style of an artist/art movement, while preserving the original composition and semantics.
Advanced Compositing: Multi-Image Montage
Provide multiple images as context and compose a brand-new scene. Great for product compositions, creative collages, or production-grade composites.
Minimalism & Negative Space
For backgrounds in websites, presentations, or marketing materials, use wide negative space and clean layout to overlay text.
A minimalist composition: a [subject] positioned at [position] in the frame. A large [color] negative-space background. Soft, delicate lighting. [aspect ratio].
Sequential Art (Storyboards/Comics)
Describe clear scenes, characters, and actions frame by frame β ideal for storyboards, comic strips, and any sequential narrative.
A single comic panel in [art style]. In the foreground, [character description and action]. In the background, [environment details]. In the [dialogue/caption] box, write: '[text]'. Lighting creates a [mood] atmosphere. [aspect ratio].
Pro Tips & Best Practices
Be as Specific as Possible
The more specific the details, the more controllable the outcome. Rather than 'fantasy armor', say 'ornate elven armor with embossed silver leaf patterns, high collar, and falcon-wing pauldrons'.
Fix Character Consistency Drift
If character traits drift after many iterations, start a fresh session with a more detailed character description to maintain consistency.
Provide Context and Intent
State the purpose and style of the image. For example, 'Design a logo for a high-end minimalist skincare brand' is far better than 'Make a logo'.
Semantic Negative Prompts
Instead of saying 'no cars', describe the desired scene positively: 'a wide, traffic-free street'.
Aspect Ratio
Control the output ratio when generating or editing images.
Control the Lens with Film/Photo Terms
Constrain composition with professional terms: wide angle, macro, low angle, 85mm portrait, Dutch tilt, etc., to precisely steer the final frame.
