• Use a high-resolution photo with even lighting and a simple background — it keeps faces sharp and true to you.
• Face the camera directly. Extreme angles, sunglasses and heavy shadows reduce likeness.

• Generate a few times and keep the best — small prompt tweaks like “golden-hour light” or “studio backdrop” change the whole mood.
