Start with describing the overall mood to emphasize the aesthetic of the scene.
A futuristic desert scene with glowing purple and blue orbs floating above the sand. An olive-skinned woman with long dark hair looks off to the distance. She is wearing silver statement earrings. The earrings are large flat silver discs. The wind picks up some strands of her hair.
A bohemian scene in a rooftop garden. A tall black male in his 30’s wears peaceful expression. He has a groomed beard. He is looking off to the side. He is wearing an oversized hunter green silk shirt and a pair of khaki shorts. He is wearing stylish brown leather sneakers. There is a golden glow at sunset.
The sky above a bright sunny field is a clear, bright blue, adding to the overall feeling of a perfect, carefree day. A young Mexican boy is giggling with joy as he runs and plays. The golden sunlight bathes the scene, highlighting the vibrant colors of his outfit—a playful mix of red, orange, and yellow. His clothes are slightly tousled from his energetic play, and his face is lit up with pure happiness. The field is dotted with wildflowers, their colors blending with the boy's outfit, creating a lively and warm atmosphere.

“No people, no human figures, no human presence”
- Lifestyle Photography can also be used to create scenes without any models present.
- Be explicit about the absence of humans in your prompt. Include phrases like “no people”, “no human presence”, or “uninhabited”.
- Describe the environment in detail, focusing on objects, landscapes, or structures.
- Avoid terms that could imply a human presence: words like “bustling”, “active”, or “crowded” can unintentionally add human figures to your scene.
- Words like “quiet” and “peaceful” can help reinforce the absence of humans in your scene.
A quiet forest clearing at sunrise, with mist rising from the ground and soft golden light filtering through the trees. A small wooden bridge crosses a gently flowing stream, surrounded by moss-covered rocks and wildflowers. No people, no human figures, no animals—only serene nature.
A vibrant desert landscape under a golden sunset, with towering saguaro cacti casting long shadows over the rippling sand dunes. Bright wildflowers in shades of orange, pink, and yellow bloom between clusters of prickly pear and agave. Jagged red rock formations rise in the distance, their rugged surfaces glowing under the warm light. A distant mesa glows deep crimson as the sky shifts from deep blue to fiery orange. No people, no human presence—only the untouched beauty of the desert.
A quiet cobblestone street in an old European town, bathed in the golden glow of street lamps at twilight. Colorful buildings with ivy-covered balconies line the narrow road, their windows reflecting the soft light of the evening. A vintage bicycle leans against a wrought-iron railing, and flower pots overflow with bright geraniums. The scent of fresh bread drifts from a small bakery, its wooden sign gently swaying in the breeze. No people, no human presence—only the peaceful charm of the empty street.

Add a Reference Image
Optional
Upload Reference Image
Adding reference images is optional. Raspberry AI will use the image as a guide to create your scene, referencing the pose, clothing, aesthetic, and overall look.
Adjust the Similarity slider so the image isn’t simply duplicated.
Uploading a reference image
Similarity: how much the reference image impacts your generated results; increasing this parameter means that the reference image will have a bigger influence on the design.
Describe Image
You can also use a Reference Image, click Describe Image to get a description and delete the Reference Image.

Adjust Presets
Optional
Presets allow you to adjust the mood, depth, and lighting dynamics of your scenes. Choosing presets before generating can help guide your prompt to generate outputs closer to your desired look.
Choosing presets
Perspective
Helps users change the angle and depth of a scene by mimicking different camera lenses or viewpoints. These are useful for emphasizing certain aspects of a model’s appearance, garments, or accessories.
Lighting
Helps users transform the illumination in images. You can achieve effects like soft, diffused lighting or higher-contrast, dramatic settings. This works best for interior scenes.
