Your AI photos do not look like you. Here is why.
You uploaded a photo, wrote something hopeful, and got back a woman who was almost you. Slightly older. Slightly smoother. Slightly generic in a way you could feel but not name.
Or it worked, sort of, and then you saw your image next to three other people’s AI brand photos and realized all four of you were standing in the same beige room in front of the same blurry plant.
Two different problems. This fixes both.
There is one specific reason AI photos of you stop looking like you, and it is not the tool. It is one habit almost everyone has, and once you see it you cannot unsee it.
And there is one specific reason all AI brand photos look identical, which has nothing to do with faces at all.
WHAT’S INSIDE:
The identity block. Copy and paste it at the top of every prompt. It is the thing that stops the model from aging you, smoothing you, and slowly turning you into a stock photo.
The framing rule that quadruples the sharpness of your face without changing anything else.
The do-not-use lists. The words everyone reaches for that quietly make you look older, and what to use instead.
The three-question derivation exercise that turns your actual life into a photo environment nobody can copy.
Three worked examples from three completely different businesses. None of them mine.
The troubleshooting map for every way this breaks.
Twenty minutes. One photo. No subscription, no new software, nothing to install.
You will finish with a photograph of your actual face, in a room that could only be yours.
