Realistic Selfie

What it does

This prompt instructs an image model to generate an ultra-realistic, high-angle close-up selfie of a young woman in a dark room, using strong flash lighting to create dramatic contrast and a minimalist background. It specifies detailed attributes for hair, makeup, clothing, accessories, nails, pose, expression, mood, and camera aesthetics to achieve a cool-toned, cinematic film-noir look with sharp facial illumination and textured knit details as the final outcome.

Inputs

Models and options

This skill's modality is: image.

To discover which model values you can use (and which options keys/values are valid for each model), run:

betterprompt resources --models-only --json

Then filter the returned JSON array to entries where modality is "image".

How to run

Step 1: Collect inputs

First, run betterprompt resources --models-only --json and filter to modality: "image" to discover valid models and available options:

betterprompt resources --models-only --json

Use only the models and option values that appear in the filtered results.

Then collect all inputs from the human:

• Optional: model and options.
  • Present the human with the default model imagen-4.0-ultra-generate-001 and its available options. Look up imagen-4.0-ultra-generate-001 in the betterprompt resources output (filtered to modality "image") and show its availableOptions as: key: val1, val2 (default), val3 | key2: .... Mark a value (default) if it matches these defaults: {"aspectRatio":"1:1"}.
  • If the human does not specify, defaults are used: model imagen-4.0-ultra-generate-001, options {"aspectRatio":"1:1"}. Other models from the resources call are also available.

Step 2: Run via BetterPrompt CLI

Use the frontmatter's name as the positional argument (for this skill, use realistic-selfie).

Command form:

betterprompt generate realistic-selfie \
  [--model <model>] \
  [--options <options JSON>] \
  [--json]

Notes:

• If the human does not mention a model, omit --model and BetterPrompt will use the default model: imagen-4.0-ultra-generate-001.
• If the human does not mention options, omit --options and BetterPrompt will use the default options: {"aspectRatio":"1:1"}.
• If the run times out, the response will include a runId you can use to fetch the result later.

Example (using defaults shown above):

betterprompt generate realistic-selfie \
  --model imagen-4.0-ultra-generate-001 \
  --options '{"aspectRatio":"1:1"}'
