Improved prompt:

Generate a realistic, low-quality selfie of three close friends having a casual night in, shot directly from a cheap smartphone's front camera.

Subjects: Three adult women, ages 25-35, sitting very close together on an old, comfortable couch in a small, lived-in apartment living room at night.

Center subject:

  • Medium skin tone
  • Long dark hair
  • Wearing a plain black sleeveless top and light grey sweatpants
  • Sits in the middle of the couch, one leg tucked under, the other bent
  • Body leans slightly toward the left, head tilted 10-15 degrees, smiling softly toward the imaginary front camera
  • Expression is relaxed, unposed, and natural, not overly staged or "model-like"
  • Hands resting on knees or thighs, no extra hands visible

Left subject:

  • Light skin
  • Straight, light-brown hair
  • Wearing a long-sleeve black top and light grey sweatpants
  • Leans in very close to the center subject, almost touching shoulders
  • Making a big, exaggerated kissy face toward the imaginary front camera
  • Lips puckered, eyebrows slightly raised
  • Appears slightly closer and a bit larger from perspective, as if she is the one holding the phone
  • Head tilted forward, looking up at the camera

Right subject:

  • Light skin
  • Wavy blonde hair
  • Wearing a dark long-sleeve top and black leggings
  • Leans into the group from the right, head tilted 15-20 degrees
  • Smiling with her tongue out in a playful, goofy expression, eyes squinting slightly from laughter
  • Looks like she is laughing at something the others just said
  • One hand might be resting on the back of the couch, the other might be gesturing or holding a drink

Environment:

  • Cozy, slightly messy living room
  • Behind them, a simple floor lamp with a warm bulb lights the wall, casting soft shadows
  • In the background on one side, a TV screen is visible with a paused movie scene, showing soft, abstract shapes with no recognizable faces or logos
  • In front of the couch, a low wooden coffee table holds open pizza boxes with half-eaten slices, a bag of chips, a soda can and a sparkling water can, a few crumbs, and a flat phone lying on the table
  • The room has string lights or fairy lights along one wall, giving a warm, imperfect glow
  • The apartment and furniture look normal and slightly worn, not like a studio set
  • Some books, magazines, and other personal items might be scattered around the room

Camera and style:

  • The image must look like a real, bad selfie taken with a basic smartphone front camera in AUTO mode
  • Visibly harsh phone flash from near the lens, with faces a little overexposed and shiny in some spots
  • Digital noise and grain are noticeable in the darker parts of the room
  • Mixed lighting: warm yellow from the lamp and cool bluish cast from the TV, giving slightly uneven white balance
  • Focus is soft, not razor sharp, with a tiny bit of motion blur in hair and hands
  • Edges of the frame have mild vignetting and slight wide-angle distortion, like a cheap front camera
  • Composition is a little crooked and off-center; some pizza boxes and objects are cut off at the edges
  • The picture should feel like an unedited, spontaneous selfie sent to a group chat
  • There are NO extra people, NO extra hands, NO extra phones, NO mirrors showing the photographer
  • The only camera is the phone we are looking through, so no second photographer at the edge of the frame
  • No reflections of another camera in any mirrors or reflective surfaces
  • The environment is realistically messy and lived-in, not overly curated or staged

Negative constraints:

  • Absolutely NO professional studio lighting, softboxes, rim light, cinematic atmosphere, commercial photoshoot, perfect color grading, HDR, strong depth of field blur, bokeh, high-end DSLR or lens
  • NO heavy airbrushed skin, filters, hotel room, staged sets, extra people, extra arms, extra hands, mirrors showing another photographer, text, logo, watermark, surreal glitches, underage appearance
  • The image must look like a genuine, imperfect selfie taken by an average person with a cheap smartphone in a real home setting

Output:

  • A single, high-resolution image file in JPG format
  • The image should be cropped to a 1:1 aspect ratio
  • The filename should be "girls_night_selfie.jpg"
  • The image must match the scene description and technical specifications exactly
  • No additional output text or commentary needed

Please generate the image and upload only the file "girls_night_selfie.jpg".

Original prompt (before our improvements)

Amateur girls’ night selfie, very casual and imperfect, 1:1 aspect ratio. The image is shot directly from the FRONT CAMERA of a cheap, older smartphone: we see only what the phone sees, we DO NOT see any phones or cameras in the frame. Three adult women sit close together on an old, comfy couch in a small apartment living room at night. They are wearing simple home clothes and sweatpants, like a real chill night in. Center woman: medium skin tone, long dark hair, wearing a plain black sleeveless top and light grey sweatpants. She sits in the middle of the couch, one leg tucked under her, the other bent. Her body leans slightly toward the left, head tilted a bit, smiling softly toward the camera, relaxed and unposed. Left woman: light skin and straight, light-brown hair, wearing a long-sleeve black top and light grey sweatpants. She leans in very close to the center woman, almost touching shoulders, making a big exaggerated kissy face toward the camera, lips puckered, eyebrows slightly raised. Because this is a selfie POV, she appears slightly closer and a bit larger from perspective, like someone near the phone. Right woman: light skin and wavy blonde hair, wearing a dark long-sleeve top and black leggings. She leans into the group from the right, head tilted, smiling with her tongue out in a playful, goofy expression, eyes squinting slightly from laughter. All three look like close friends having fun, not models. Environment: cozy, slightly messy living room. Behind them, a simple floor lamp with a warm bulb lights the wall. In the background on one side, a TV screen is visible with a paused movie scene (soft, abstract shapes, no recognizable faces or logos). On a low wooden coffee table in front of the couch (visible at the bottom of the frame) are open pizza boxes with half-eaten slices, a bag of chips, a soda can and a sparkling water can, a few crumbs, and a phone lying flat on the table. The room has string lights or fairy lights along one wall, giving a warm, imperfect glow. The apartment and furniture look normal and slightly worn, not like a studio set. Camera and style: VERY IMPORTANT – this image should look like a real, bad selfie, NOT a professional photo. It is captured with a basic smartphone front camera in AUTO mode. Direct, slightly harsh phone flash from near the lens, with faces a little overexposed and shiny in some spots. Visible digital noise and grain in the darker parts of the room. Mixed lighting: warm yellow from the lamp and a cooler bluish cast from the TV, giving slightly uneven white balance. Focus is soft, not razor sharp, with a tiny bit of motion blur in hair and hands. Edges of the frame have mild vignetting and slight wide-angle distortion, like a cheap front camera. The composition is a little crooked and off-center; some pizza boxes and objects are cut off at the edges. Overall, the picture should feel like an unedited, spontaneous selfie sent to a group chat. Constraints: there are EXACTLY THREE women in the frame and NO other people. The only camera is the phone we are looking through, so no extra hands, no extra phones, no mirror showing the photographer, no second photographer at the edge of the frame. No reflections of another camera. Just the three friends on the couch and the messy coffee table. Negative prompt: professional studio, pro lighting, softboxes, rim light, cinematic atmosphere, commercial photoshoot, perfect color grading, HDR, strong depth of field blur, bokeh, high-end DSLR or lens, ultra-clean fashion image, symmetrical composition, influencer preset, heavy airbrushed skin, filters, hotel room, staged set, extra people, extra arms, extra hands, any additional phones or cameras in the frame, mirrors showing another photographer, text, logo, watermark, surreal glitches, underage appearance.
