01Before you start

These prompts are written for image editors that accept your own photos, such as ChatGPT, Gemini or the Christmas tools on AI Trend Club. Upload one clear, front-facing photo per person. Separate photos keep faces closer than one group shot.

Each prompt includes a line asking the model to keep every face, hairstyle and age as it is. Leave that line in; it is the part that stops the model from inventing new faces.

02Family in matching pajamas

Upload one photo per person, up to four. Works for couples and families.

Using the uploaded photos, create one photorealistic family Christmas photo of all these people together. Keep every person’s face, hairstyle, skin tone and real age exactly as in their own photo; do not merge, swap or change faces, and do not add anyone else. Everyone wears matching red plaid Christmas pajamas and sits close together on a cozy sofa in front of a decorated Christmas tree with wrapped presents and warm string lights. Natural happy expressions, eye-level camera, soft warm light. No text, no watermark.

03Couple on a snowy evening

Upload two photos, one for each of you.

Using the uploaded photos, create one photorealistic Christmas photo of the person or people shown, all in one frame. Keep every person’s face, hairstyle, skin tone and real age exactly as in their own photo; do not merge, swap or change faces, and do not add anyone else. They stand on a snowy evening street lined with warm Christmas lights, wearing winter coats and knit scarves, holding warm mugs. Natural happy expressions, eye-level camera. No text, no watermark.

04Solo portrait by the fireplace

Upload one photo of yourself.

Using the uploaded photos, create one warm, photorealistic Christmas photo of the person or people shown, all in one frame. Keep every person’s face, hairstyle, skin tone and real age exactly as in their own photo; do not merge, swap or change faces, and do not add anyone else. Dress them in cozy knit sweaters and place them in a softly lit living room beside a decorated Christmas tree, warm string lights and a fireplace. Natural smiles, eye-level camera, gentle depth of field. No text, no watermark.

05Your pet as Santa, an elf or a reindeer

Upload one photo of your dog or cat with its face clearly visible. For an elf, swap the outfit for “a green elf hat and elf outfit”; for a reindeer, “soft reindeer antlers and a red scarf”.

Using the uploaded photo of a dog or cat, create a photorealistic Christmas portrait of the same pet. Keep its breed, fur colors, markings, eye color and face shape exactly as in the photo. Dress it in a small Santa hat and red Santa coat and seat it on a cozy blanket beside a lit Christmas tree with wrapped presents. Soft warm light, eye-level camera. No text, no watermark.

06Christmas card with your greeting

Upload the photos you want on the card and replace the greeting in quotes with your own. Short greetings come out spelled right most often.

Using the uploaded photos, design a vertical Christmas greeting card. Show the same people or pets from the photos together, with every face, hairstyle, fur and skin tone unchanged, in a photo-style frame on a festive background of pine branches, red berries and soft gold snowflakes. At the bottom, write exactly this greeting in elegant lettering: "Merry Christmas from our family". Spell the greeting exactly as written between the quotes and add no other text, logo or watermark.

07When a face comes out wrong

  • Use a sharper, front-facing photo in even light; sunglasses, masks and heavy filters make faces drift.
  • Fewer people per image keeps each face closer to its photo.
  • Run it again. Each run is a little different, and the second try is often the keeper.

08Questions

Can I use these prompts for free?
Yes. Copy them into any image editor that accepts your photos. On AI Trend Club, new accounts get 25 free credits, enough for five images.
Can I use photos of my kids?
Only if you are their parent or legal guardian and everyone pictured agreed. On AI Trend Club you confirm that before each image, and the scenes are fixed, family-friendly settings.
Why does every prompt repeat the part about faces?
Image models like to tidy faces up or blend people together. Naming what must stay the same keeps each person recognisable.
