The prompt
Turn the uploaded photo into a portrait as a chef plating food in a busy restaurant kitchen, white chef coat, flames behind, warm tones.

About this look
This prompt turns one photo of you into a portrait as a chef plating food in a busy restaurant kitchen, white chef coat, flames behind, warm tones. The styling is built around white chef coat and the camera line asks for a full-frame camera with an 85mm f/1.8 lens. The ending keeps skin and hair natural, so it reads as a real photo. Use it to test a style before you try it for real, or just for a bold new profile picture.
How to use it in Gemini or ChatGPT
- Tap Copy prompt above.
- Open Gemini or ChatGPT, tap + and upload a clear, front-facing photo of yourself.
- Paste the prompt and send it. The image is ready in under a minute.
- If a detail is off, reply with the fix in plain words (for example "keep my face exactly as in the photo") instead of starting over.
Tips for the best result
- Use a recent photo in soft natural light; harsh shadows and beauty filters confuse the AI.
- If your beard or hairline changes, add "same beard and hairline as in the photo" and regenerate.
Try these variations
- Add a light: put "warm lamp light at night" at the end of the first sentence for a cosy mood.
- Another place: move the scene to a quiet beach at sunrise and keep the rest of the prompt the same.
- Wider frame: change "85mm" to "35mm" to show more of the place around you.
Questions about this prompt
Is the Chef in the kitchen prompt free to use?
Yes, it is free to copy and use in Gemini, ChatGPT or any AI app that takes a photo plus text. Your photo goes only to that AI app, never to Promptora.
Will the Chef in the kitchen prompt keep my face the same?
It has a line that tells the AI to keep your face, skin tone, age and hairline as in your photo. Use one sharp, well-lit photo; if the face drifts, ask it to match the photo more closely.
Which is better for this prompt, Gemini or ChatGPT?
Both work. Gemini often gives more natural skin, and ChatGPT follows detailed scenes closely. If one result looks off, paste the prompt in the other app.
