Turn your family photo into a Christmas portrait

📷 This prompt edits your own photo. Upload a clear, front-facing photo in Gemini or ChatGPT first, then paste the prompt.

Prompt
Use the uploaded photo of my family. Keep everyone's faces and facial features exactly the same. Place us in a warm, cozy living room on Christmas Eve: a large decorated Christmas tree with golden lights behind us, a fireplace with stockings, soft bokeh lights. Dress everyone in matching red-and-white knit Christmas sweaters. Warm cinematic lighting, realistic photo, sharp focus on faces. Add small elegant text at the bottom: "Merry Christmas from the Smiths".

Tips for best results

Use a clear, well-lit photo with your face visible. Gemini (Nano Banana) and ChatGPT both keep your face best when you say “keep facial features exactly the same”.

If the face changes, reply: “Keep my face identical to the uploaded photo; only change the background and clothing.”
