The prompt

Create an extremely realistic professional baby milestone photograph using the uploaded baby photograph as the ONLY image input.

IMPORTANT:
The uploaded baby photograph is ONLY the identity reference for the baby.

Use the uploaded baby photograph to accurately reproduce the baby's real identity, facial characteristics, skin tone, hair, facial proportions, body proportions, and natural appearance.

Do NOT use the uploaded baby photograph as the scene, clothing, background, or prop reference.

Recreate the complete scene described below.

MILESTONE NUMBER: [NUMBER]

[NUMBER] represents the baby's [NUMBER]-month milestone.

==================================================
CORE CONCEPT
==================================================

Create a playful "little rich baby / money" themed milestone photograph.

The entire scene is a TOP-DOWN FLAT-LAY photograph.

A real baby is lying on a dark brown/taupe upholstered couch or soft textured fabric surface.

The baby is positioned on the LEFT side of the composition.

The baby's body extends vertically from the upper-left toward the lower-left portion of the frame.

The baby is surrounded by realistic US $100 bills.

A large milestone number is physically formed using multiple US $100 bills on the RIGHT side of the baby.

Additional loose $100 bills are scattered naturally around the baby, especially near the baby's head and along the LEFT edge.

The final image should closely reproduce the overall visual concept and arrangement of the reference:

BABY ON LEFT + SCATTERED MONEY AROUND BABY + LARGE MONEY NUMBER ON RIGHT.

The photograph should look like a real photograph taken from directly above.

==================================================
CAMERA AND VIEWPOINT
==================================================

Use a square 1:1 composition.

Camera positioned directly ABOVE the entire setup.

Approximately a 90-degree top-down viewpoint.

The camera should look straight down at the couch.

The baby's body, money and couch should all be viewed from above.

Use a realistic smartphone or modern full-frame camera appearance.

Natural moderate lens perspective.

Avoid extreme wide-angle distortion.

Avoid dramatic perspective.

Avoid cinematic camera angles.

Do not create a conventional portrait.

==================================================
BABY POSITION
==================================================

Place the baby on the LEFT side of the frame.

The baby's head should be positioned toward the upper-left / upper-center-left area.

The baby's body extends downward toward the lower-left.

The baby lies naturally on their back.

The baby's entire body should be visible from head to feet, with the feet toward the lower portion of the image.

The baby should have a relaxed, confident, playful expression.

A subtle serious or calm expression is also acceptable.

The pose should feel spontaneous and physically comfortable.

The baby's arms should be naturally positioned.

The baby should be holding one US $100 bill with both hands near the chest.

The bill should look physically held by the baby's hands.

The baby's legs should be naturally positioned with slight bends or relaxed crossing.

Do NOT make the baby stand.

Do NOT make the baby sit.

Do NOT make the baby lean against anything.

==================================================
BABY IDENTITY
==================================================

The uploaded baby photograph is the exact identity reference.

The generated baby must clearly be the same baby as in the uploaded photograph.

Preserve the baby's actual:

- face shape
- forehead
- eyes
- eye spacing
- eyebrows
- nose
- mouth
- lips
- cheeks
- chin
- ears
- skin tone
- hair color
- hair texture
- hairline
- facial proportions
- natural facial asymmetry
- natural baby characteristics

Do not turn the baby into a generic AI-generated baby.

Do not change the baby's recognizable identity.

Do not artificially enlarge the eyes.

Do not alter facial proportions.

Do not make the baby look older or younger than the uploaded baby.

Do not excessively beautify the baby.

Preserve natural skin texture, fine baby hairs and small imperfections.

==================================================
BABY OUTFIT
==================================================

Dress the baby in a completely BLACK baby outfit.

Use a simple black long-sleeve baby top and matching black pants or a black one-piece outfit.

The outfit should look like real soft cotton baby clothing.

Use:

- solid black fabric
- realistic stitching
- natural folds
- subtle wrinkles
- realistic fabric texture
- natural shadows

The outfit should be simple and minimal.

Do not add logos.

Do not add text.

Do not add colorful patterns.

Do not add unnecessary accessories.

The black outfit should create the same visual contrast against the brown/taupe couch as the reference.

==================================================
OVERSIZED SUNGLASSES — REQUIRED
==================================================

Place oversized BLACK/DARK sunglasses on the baby's face.

The sunglasses should look like real physical sunglasses.

They should be slightly oversized relative to the baby's face, creating the playful "little boss" appearance seen in the reference.

Use:

- dark tinted lenses
- black frame
- realistic reflections
- realistic frame thickness
- natural contact with the baby's face

The sunglasses must NOT cover the baby's entire face.

The baby's facial identity should remain recognizable.

Do not make the sunglasses cartoonish.

Do not make them futuristic.

Do not make them transparent.

==================================================
MONEY / CURRENCY
==================================================

Use REALISTIC US $100 BILLS throughout the scene.

The money should resemble genuine physical US hundred-dollar notes.

Use realistic:

- Benjamin Franklin portrait
- green/gray/cream currency colors
- paper texture
- folds
- creases
- slight curling
- natural wear
- realistic printed details
- subtle shadows
- natural variations between bills

The bills should look like physical paper currency photographed with a real camera.

Do not make the bills look like digital graphics.

Do not make every bill perfectly flat.

Some bills should be slightly curled, folded or overlapping.

==================================================
MILESTONE NUMBER MADE FROM MONEY — CRITICAL
==================================================

THIS IS THE PRIMARY MILESTONE ELEMENT.

On the RIGHT side of the baby, physically arrange multiple REAL US $100 bills to form the exact milestone number:

[NUMBER]

The bills themselves must create the shape of [NUMBER].

For example:

If [NUMBER] = 8:

Arrange multiple $100 bills into a large, clearly recognizable number "8".

If [NUMBER] = 6:

Arrange $100 bills into a large, clearly recognizable number "6".

If [NUMBER] = 4:

Arrange $100 bills into a large, clearly recognizable number "4".

The milestone number must be recognizable purely from the physical arrangement of the bills.

DO NOT print the milestone number onto the money.

DO NOT digitally overlay the number.

DO NOT use a graphic number.

DO NOT use a wooden number.

DO NOT use a plastic number.

DO NOT use a balloon number.

DO NOT use a cake.

DO NOT use a sign.

DO NOT use text floating in the image.

The number exists ONLY because the US $100 bills are physically arranged into that shape.

==================================================
MONEY NUMBER SIZE AND SHAPE
==================================================

Make the money-formed [NUMBER] large and visually prominent.

It should occupy a substantial portion of the RIGHT side of the photograph.

The number should be approximately comparable in overall height to the baby.

Use enough bills to clearly define the number.

Keep small gaps between some bills so the underlying couch remains visible.

Bills may overlap slightly at their corners.

The arrangement should look manually created by a real person.

The number should not look perfectly geometrical.

The edges of the number can have slight irregularities caused by real paper bills.

However, [NUMBER] must remain immediately recognizable.

Do not allow the bills to become so randomly scattered that the number is lost.

==================================================
LOOSE MONEY AROUND BABY
==================================================

Scatter additional US $100 bills naturally around the baby.

Place several bills:

- around and above the baby's head
- along the LEFT edge
- partially underneath or beside the baby's body
- near the baby's shoulders
- near the lower-left edge

Some bills may be partially cropped by the image boundaries.

Some bills may overlap one another.

Some bills may be slightly folded or curled.

The arrangement should look playful and casually staged.

Do not make all the loose bills perfectly aligned.

Do not make the money arrangement look like a commercial product display.

==================================================
MONEY HELD BY BABY
==================================================

The baby MUST visibly hold a US $100 bill with both hands near the chest.

The bill should be physically positioned between the baby's hands.

The baby's fingers should naturally grip the paper.

The bill should have realistic folds caused by being held.

Do not make the bill float.

Do not merge the bill with the baby's hands.

Do not create extra fingers.

Do not make the bill unnaturally oversized.

==================================================
COUCH / BACKGROUND SURFACE
==================================================

The entire scene is arranged on a dark brown/taupe upholstered couch or soft textured fabric surface.

The surface fills the entire image.

It should resemble a real couch cushion or soft upholstered furniture.

Include realistic:

- fabric texture
- seams where appropriate
- subtle wrinkles
- cushion compression
- tonal variation
- natural imperfections

The baby should physically compress the soft surface beneath their body.

The money should rest naturally on the same surface.

Do not create a flat digital background.

Do not create a wooden floor.

Do not create a carpet.

Do not create a bedroom.

Do not show the surrounding room.

The photograph should be tightly framed around the couch surface.

==================================================
PHYSICAL CONTACT AND SHADOWS
==================================================

Everything must physically exist in the same environment.

The baby must naturally contact and slightly compress the couch.

The sunglasses must physically rest on the baby's face.

The $100 bill held by the baby must physically contact the baby's hands.

The loose bills must physically rest on the couch.

The bills forming [NUMBER] must physically rest on the couch.

Every bill should cast subtle realistic contact shadows.

Overlapping bills should create believable layered shadows.

The money should respond naturally to the soft surface beneath it.

Nothing should look digitally pasted into the image.

==================================================
LIGHTING
==================================================

Use soft, diffuse natural indoor lighting.

The lighting should resemble a genuine photograph taken inside a home.

Use realistic soft shadows.

The baby's skin, black clothing, couch and money must all receive consistent illumination.

The $100 bills should have subtle natural paper highlights.

The sunglasses should have realistic reflections from the surrounding environment.

Avoid dramatic studio lighting.

Avoid cinematic lighting.

Avoid artificial glow.

Avoid excessive contrast.

==================================================
AUTHENTIC REAL PHOTOGRAPHY
==================================================

The final image must look like a genuine real photograph.

It should feel like a parent or photographer physically arranged the baby, money and sunglasses on a real couch and photographed the setup from directly above.

Prioritize authentic photographic rendering over perfection.

Include subtle characteristics of a real camera photograph:

- natural exposure variation
- realistic white balance
- slight lens softness
- mild natural image noise
- realistic camera sharpening
- natural baby skin texture
- individual baby hairs
- tiny skin imperfections
- realistic fabric texture
- natural couch texture
- realistic paper texture
- subtle bill creases
- believable contact shadows
- slight imperfections in object placement

Do not make everything perfectly sharp.

Do not make every bill perfectly flat.

Do not make every object perfectly aligned.

Do not make the baby look digitally generated.

Do not apply beauty retouching.

Do not make the baby's skin waxy, plastic, glossy or porcelain-like.

Do not excessively smooth the skin.

Do not use excessive HDR.

Do not use excessive clarity.

Do not oversharpen.

Do not oversaturate.

Do not use cinematic color grading.

Do not add artificial glow.

Do not create artificial bokeh.

Do not make the photograph look like CGI.

Do not make it look like a 3D render.

Natural photographic imperfections are desirable.

==================================================
CAMERA FRAMING
==================================================

Keep the visual hierarchy very clear:

LEFT:
Baby wearing black clothing and oversized dark sunglasses.

AROUND BABY:
Scattered US $100 bills.

RIGHT:
Large [NUMBER] constructed from US $100 bills.

The baby and money number should dominate the photograph.

Do not make the number too close to the baby.

Do not make the number too small.

Do not crop the baby.

Do not crop the main money number.

Some loose bills may be cropped naturally by the frame edges.

==================================================
MILESTONE NUMBER RULE
==================================================

[NUMBER] is the user's milestone number.

Use [NUMBER] exactly.

If the user enters:

4

the money arrangement must form 4.

If the user enters:

6

the money arrangement must form 6.

If the user enters:

8

the money arrangement must form 8.

Do not substitute another number.

Do not add a different milestone number anywhere else.

The primary milestone number must be formed entirely from physical US $100 bills.

==================================================
FINAL VISUAL CHECK — MANDATORY
==================================================

Before generating the final image, verify ALL of the following:

✓ The uploaded baby is used as the exact identity reference.
✓ The baby is lying naturally on a dark brown/taupe couch surface.
✓ The baby is positioned on the LEFT side.
✓ The baby is wearing a completely BLACK outfit.
✓ The baby is wearing oversized DARK sunglasses.
✓ The baby is holding a real US $100 bill with both hands.
✓ Additional US $100 bills are scattered naturally around the baby.
✓ A LARGE [NUMBER] is physically formed from multiple US $100 bills on the RIGHT.
✓ The money-formed number is immediately recognizable.
✓ The number is created ONLY through the arrangement of real bills.
✓ No digital number is added.
✓ No other milestone prop replaces the money number.
✓ The entire photograph is viewed directly from above.
✓ The couch fills the background.
✓ The image looks like a genuine real photograph.
✓ The baby remains recognizable as the uploaded baby.
✓ Anatomy, hands and fingers are realistic.

CRITICAL PRIORITY:

The final image MUST clearly show:

BABY + BLACK OUTFIT + OVERSIZED DARK SUNGLASSES + $100 BILL IN BABY'S HANDS + SCATTERED $100 BILLS + LARGE [NUMBER] MADE FROM $100 BILLS.

[NUMBER] must be the exact number entered by the user.

The milestone number must be physically constructed from US $100 bills.

Do not omit the money-formed number.

Do not substitute another number.

Do not introduce unrelated concepts.

FINAL OBJECTIVE:

Create a photograph that looks like a real, playful "little boss" baby milestone photoshoot, with the baby on the left and a large milestone number made from real US $100 bills on the right.

The uploaded baby photograph controls ONLY the baby's identity.

[NUMBER] controls the milestone number.

Which AI to run it on

  • ChatGPT (GPT Image)Best

    The one to use. It lays the bills into a readable digit and keeps the sunglasses on the right side of playful, which is the pair of things this one needs.

  • Gemini (Nano Banana)Limited

    Scatters the bills into a loose pile rather than the number, and is the more likely of the two to balk at rendering currency at all.

Make it yours

  • Replace every [NUMBER] with your baby's month. Use find-and-replace; it appears a dozen or so times.
  • Every image model deliberately fudges banknote detail, so the bills will look like money at a glance and fall apart up close. That is fine for this shot. Do not push for sharper currency, since that is the request models refuse.
  • Play money or a different currency works just as well and sidesteps the whole issue. Swap 'US $100 bills' throughout and keep everything else.
  • The black outfit against the taupe couch is what makes this read. On a pale sofa the baby disappears, so change the couch rather than the clothes.
