How to Keep Your Face Consistent in Gemini AI Photos
- Use a Clear Reference Image: Start with a sharp, well-lit photo where the face is clearly visible. Blurry or heavily filtered images can make it harder to preserve recognizable facial details.
- Include Identity Instructions: Use clear instructions such as "Preserve the person's facial identity and recognizable features" or "Do not unnecessarily alter the person's facial structure."
- Avoid Conflicting Changes: If you want the same person to remain recognizable, avoid asking Gemini to make major changes to fundamental facial characteristics at the same time.
- Consider the Lighting: If possible, choose lighting that works naturally with the reference image and the new scene.
- Refine the Prompt: If the first result changes the face more than you want, adjust the wording and generate another version.
