What is a Couple Diorama Poster?

A couple diorama poster splits a 3:4 frame into two equal halves. The upper half is your photo of two people, kept as taken — faces, pose, gestures, who stands where, outfits and the real background — with only a light magazine-style grade. The lower half rebuilds the same moment as a 3D impasto oil-painting miniature: the two of you as small figures you could pick up, holding the identical pose, set on one translucent band of thick paint on bright white textured paper, with the street or park behind reduced to a few receding strokes. A short headline and a line of small notes sit in the white space.

Which photos work well?

Full-length or knee-up photos of two people with a clear shared pose — leaning on a sign, sitting on a bench, waving, holding hands — in bright daylight with some colour in the clothes or setting. Distinctive outfits and props (a veil, balloons, a skateboard, flowers) come through especially well, because the figures are built from them.

Which photos struggle?

Tight face close-ups, groups of three or more, and dim or night photos. The lower half needs whole bodies to turn into figures and bright colours to build the palette from; a head-and-shoulders crop leaves it nothing to sculpt, and a dark photo gives it only grey to work with.

The prompt behind this tool

This is the full prompt, translated into English. Copy it and use it with any image model that accepts a reference photo.

Use this prompt
Output the image on its own, not as a collage. Use a 3:4 vertical frame with the upper and lower zones exactly 1:1 in height, each taking 50% of the picture.
Upper half: keep the original couple photo. Hold both people's identities, facial features, poses and the way they interact exactly as in the original (stance, hand gestures, body angle, gaze direction and relative position must not change), along with their proportions, the real photographic texture, the natural light and the original colour mood. Keep the real background complete, whatever it is — street, shopfront, nature or interior — and apply only a light, refined photographic grade so it reads like an art magazine, an independent publication or exhibition photography. To fit the frame you may extend the sky, ground or surroundings naturally, but never stretch, distort or alter the two people, and every detail of their outfits, accessories and hair must survive.
Lower half: take the most recognisable narrative core of the photo — the two people's actions, poses, relationship, outfits and setting — and rebuild it as a 3D impasto oil-painting miniature diorama. In the lower half the couple's actions, poses, gestures, interaction and composition must match the photo above exactly; do not redesign the pose, only turn the realistic people into refined, three-dimensional, touchable miniature figures: keep hair, facial features, garment patterns, accessories and other key identity cues, with proportions lightly refined but finely made overall. Compose with generous white space and a centred or slightly off-centre diagonal axis that follows the direction of movement in the original. On bright white textured paper, carry the figures on a single translucent impasto band of colour derived from the photo's subject; the band can become ground, a path, water, a streak of light or an abstract slice of landscape, matching the kind of place in the original. Let the figures interact with the band naturally, with reflections, ripples, flecks of light or trailing strokes. Translate the real setting into a miniature impasto version that recedes as a secondary layer, keeping only a few motifs that belong to the scene, so the space feels light, poetic and able to breathe.
Painting language: impasto oil × miniature object × clear light. Keep obvious paint build-up, palette-knife marks, raised edges, paper texture and a half-handmade, sculpted feel. Concentrate the impasto on the ground band, background colour blocks and highlights on the clothing, so the figures are refined and dimensional while keeping the material weight of real oil paint — avoid slick plastic and the look of an ordinary 3D model.
Colour: pull the brightest, liveliest, most alive colours out of the photo above and remix them rather than averaging. Raise brightness, clarity and purity overall, derive clean, cheerful hues naturally from the original, and use a fresh warm–cool relationship for a healing, soothing feel. Use plenty of pure warm white as breathing space, lit locally with warm orange, golden yellow or pink. Avoid grey, dirty, aged, sombre or brown-filter tones, fluorescent colour and cheap candy colour.

Text: a light touch. Distil a short headline from the couple's relationship, the setting or the mood, with a very small amount of secondary text, a number or a tiny annotation. Keep the lettering fine and restrained with plenty of space around it, placed along the diagonal axis, beside the figures or in the white space, like a delicate label in an art publication.

Overall mood: a bright white ground, lively impasto, clear colour, miniature figures, large areas of white space and warm light, adding up to a refined, soothing atmosphere

Frequently asked questions

Will it change the two of us in the photo?

The top half keeps your photo as taken — both faces, the pose, the hands, where each of you is standing and what you are wearing — with only a light colour grade, and the background may be extended at the edges to fit the frame. The bottom half repaints the same two people as small sculpted figures, so the faces are stylised, but the pose and outfits are held to the photo.

Does it work with one person, or with a group?

It is written for two. The prompt talks about 'the couple' and 'both people' throughout, and every sample is a pair. A single person usually still comes out well, but three or more is untested and the diorama gets crowded fast.

Can I choose the headline?

Yes, and it is more reliable than leaving it to the model. Type a headline and an optional second line and they are copied exactly; leave them blank and the model writes its own short title and notes, which is where spelling slips happen.

What language can the headline be in?

Any. The samples use English script lettering because that is what the creator's examples show, but a supplied line is drawn as given. Keep it to a few words — it is set large across the white space.

How is this different from the oil painting diorama poster?

Same painting language, different subject. That one takes a scene — a car in a field, a picnic — and is free to re-angle it. This one is written for people: it forbids changing the pose, the gestures or who stands where, and it adds a headline.

Where do the colours come from?

From your photo. The prompt picks the brightest colours in the top half and pushes them lighter and cleaner, then adds a single painted band under the figures — denim blue, sunflower yellow, pink — so each result takes its palette from what you wore and where you stood.

What size do I get?

2K is 100 credits and 4K is 200. Both come back as a 3:4 vertical poster, 1792×2400 at 2K.

What happens to my photo?

It is stored privately so the generator can read it, deleted on a schedule, never shown to other users and never used to train a model. Generation usually takes 60 to 90 seconds.
