Defeat Midjourney Defaults.
Natural Photo Prompt Structure.
Fam,
I have a hot take.
Midjourney’s default aesthetic is too polished. (Sometimes).
And it makes your images look fake.
Here’s a prompt formula to defeat that.
Natural Photo Prompt Formula
Candid [subject], [environment], Asymmetrical Composition, 35mm, Bergger Pancro 400, street photography, film grain --ar 5:4 --s 225 --c 15 --weird 30
I’ve run this across multiple subjects and it’s worked exceptionally well.
Quick Tip: Don’t overcomplicate your subject or environment…keep it simple.
“Prompt Example: candid new york men, talking in a bodega, asymmetrical composition, 35mm, Bergger Pancro 400, street photography, film grain --ar {5:4, 10:4, 7:4} --s 225 --c 20 --weird 30”

Keywords:
Candid: Makes the pose less robotic/structured
Asymmetrical Composition: Alters the body position
35mm/Bergger Pancro 400: Provides the photo quality
Street Photography: More Candid style of photography
Film Grain: Provides and analog feel
Chaos Parameter (--c 15): Adds image grid variability
Weird (--weird 30): Reduces AI feel
Now, if you want to have some fun creating ads…
Try this prompt structure…
