GQ Studio Portrait Edit (Upload Your Photo)

The magazine-cover studio look — moody rim light, cinematic colour grading — built around your actual face instead of a generated stranger's.

This prompt edits your own photo instead of drawing a new person. Upload a clear, well-lit selfie into the AI tool first, then paste this prompt alongside it — the model keeps your face and changes everything around it.

Your prompt

Edit the uploaded photo — do not generate a new face or a different person. Keep the exact facial identity from the reference photo completely unchanged: same face shape, same eyes, same eyebrows, same nose, same lips, same jawline, same beard shape and density, same skin tone, same hairline, and any visible moles or marks. Keep the exact same body type, height, and build — do not slim, bulk up, or reshape the body in any way. The subject is 24 years old. Preserve natural, realistic skin texture with visible pores and fine detail, natural minor asymmetry, and a completely unedited look — no beauty filter, no skin smoothing, no airbrushing, no plastic or waxy skin, nothing that looks artificially perfect or AI-generated. This must read as a real, untouched photograph of this exact person, with only the clothing and lighting changed. Redress the subject in a black oversized hoodie, standing against a plain studio backdrop under a cool teal-toned lighting with a soft rim light along the shoulders. Shallow depth of field, no retouching, vertical 3:4 aspect ratio, magazine-quality photorealism.

Tips for better results

  • A plain, evenly lit reference photo edits more cleanly than one with a busy background.
  • The rim-light instruction is what separates this from a flat ID-photo look — don't drop it.
