Turn my photo into an instant-film snapshot
Makes your photo look like an instant-camera print with a white frame, soft flash and faded colours, while keeping you exactly the same.
The prompt
Turn the uploaded photo into an instant-film camera snapshot.
Scene: [keep my background / at a party with fairy lights / on a beach at dusk / in my room]
Flash look: [direct on-camera flash / soft natural daylight]
Handwritten caption on the white border: [e.g. Goa, 2026 / no caption]
Show as: [the print alone / the print held in a hand / prints pinned on a wall]
Aspect ratio: [1:1 / 4:5]
Rules:
- Keep every face, skin tone and body shape exactly the same. Do not beautify or change age.
- Square instant-film print with a thicker bottom border, slightly washed-out colours, soft vignette and fine grain.
- Natural, believable result; no brand names or logos on the print or camera.
- If a caption is used, write it exactly as given in a casual handwritten style.
Only edit photos of people who agreed to it; for anyone under 18, only if you are their parent or guardian.

How this prompt is built
This prompt follows the Zero-Shot structure (Zero-shot prompting). A zero-shot prompt gives the model a direct instruction with no examples. It is the simplest form, and it works best when the task is common and clearly worded.
