Recipe

The examples above were generated with Nano Banana Pro and Seedream 4.5. The recipes below are written for GPT Image and Flux, so treat the settings as a starting point rather than the exact run.

A description in plain sentences. This is the version to start with, and it works on any current image model. Settings below are the ones we used on GPT Image; treat them as a starting point.

This recipe describes a treatment rather than a thing. Put your own subject in and it is added to the end of the prompt.

Prompt

A cut and paste collage: two photographic profiles layered against a flat pink ground with pressed flowers and blossom spilling out of the join between them. Visible scissor cut edges on every photographic piece, the flowers at a noticeably different scale to the faces, slight drop shadows where pieces overlap. Symmetrical enough to feel deliberate. No lettering. Subject: two profiles facing away from each other.
