Bring the essentials
- Portrait
- Gown and setting
- Pose
Choose a visual direction and adapt the description before generating. Turn on optional design refinement if you want help with composition, colors or layout. Keep your facts and exact wording in the brief.
Pick a moment, not just a backdrop
A formal portrait, a candid laugh and a confetti celebration have different energy. Specify the gown color, pose and setting, then keep the face and personal details you want preserved.
Keep the details intentional
Add a school name, year or visible message only when you supply it. A blank rolled paper works as a visual prop without inventing a degree or official credential. Review hands, cap placement and facial consistency.

Campus graduation portrait
Created by editing the fictional source portrait.
See the exact prompt
Transform the supplied identity-reference photo into one realistic 4:5 university graduation portrait of the same fictional 27-year-old adult man. Preserve his recognizable facial identity, proportions, skin tone, eyebrows and short black hair. He wears a navy graduation gown and square academic cap, holding a simple rolled blank paper tied with an ivory ribbon. Standing outside an unspecified beautiful old campus courtyard in warm late-afternoon sunshine, a few gold confetti pieces in the air, warm proud spontaneous smile, three-quarter-length composition, natural camera perspective and true skin texture. No named institution, degree certificate text, official insignia, academic awards or graduation-year claim. The photo is a creative cap-and-gown portrait, not credential evidence. No text, watermark, AI labels or exaggerated surreal styling.
This prompt uses a reference portrait. Upload your own photo when adapting it.
