Dance at night
Create a couple portrait for this idea: dance at night. Start with a permitted adult reference, then adapt the setting, lighting, framing and clothes.
Tools: An image editor supporting reference photographs and written editing instructions
What to provide
- One permitted reference image showing two consenting adults
Example Recorded test output
Input
Reference: the displayed original fictional adult couple. Exact tested default expansion: Edit the attached reference photograph of two consenting adult partners into one natural-looking couple portrait. Use the reference for both identities: preserve their facial features, skin tones, hair and apparent adult ages, with no face swapping or body reshaping. Action: The partners share an unhurried dance on a terrace at night, joined hands visible and other arms relaxed, with a calm skyline behind them and no crowds. Location: a spacious terrace at night. Lighting: warm string lights and soft facial fill. Framing: full body. Wardrobe: keep the reference outfits: a muted terracotta sweater and navy trousers, and a slate-blue shirt and charcoal trousers. Use believable camera perspective, natural skin texture and relaxed expressions. Change the pose, scene and lighting only as required above. Keep exactly two adult partners, with coherent hands, separate limbs and clear facial outlines. Do not add text, logos or watermarks. Produce one still image, not a collage.
Output
The partners share an open dance hold on a terrace beneath string lights, with joined hands, crossed stepping feet and a nighttime skyline.
Tool settings
One reference-based image edit with Codex built-in image_gen; transparent_background=false. Reference: 1536 x 1024 PNG. Observed output: 1024 x 1536 PNG. Framing was specified in text; no aspect ratio, seed, quality setting or exact model version was passed separately or exposed. Test timestamp: 2026-11-05T17:48:19.586Z.
Improve the result
- Keep both identities, the scene and crop unchanged. Correct only the visible hand anatomy.
- Keep everything else unchanged. Improve the exposure on both faces without changing skin tones.
Prepare the photo
Upload a photo you have permission to edit, with both adult partners clearly visible. Paste the complete expanded prompt; the slash label is only a name for this idea.
Make the pose readable
The partners share an unhurried dance on a terrace at night, joined hands visible and other arms relaxed, with a calm skyline behind them and no crowds.
Check the result
Compare both faces with the reference and inspect the contact points, hands and surroundings. Correct one observed problem at a time. Generated examples depict fictional people.
About this recorded example
The partners share an open dance hold on a terrace beneath string lights, with joined hands, crossed stepping feet and a nighttime skyline.
The open hold can also read as a walking step. A still frame cannot verify a dance sequence, and footwear is generated.
