AI Couple Photo Prompts: How to Write Them, With Six to Copy
How to write prompts for an AI couple photo made from two separate pictures. Six prompts to copy, real samples from our own photos and fixes for faces that drift.
Published November 6, 2026
A good AI couple photo prompt does four things. It says the result is one photograph of both people, names what to keep from your uploads, describes a small moment instead of a pose, and fixes the place and the light. The prompts below are written in that shape for two uploaded photos, one of each person, or one existing photo of the two of you.
No prompt needed? Two of Us has the moments ready to pick.
We run Two of Us on reRAW AI. reRAW AI is an all-in-one AI video and image studio. Two of Us takes one photo of each of you, or one photo of you both, and returns a single couple photo. The tiles you pick from (Kitchen Slow Dance, Forehead to Forehead, Caught in the Rain, Rooftop Blue Hour, Sweep You Up and more) are prompts we already wrote. Here is how they are put together, so you can write your own in the Your own words tile or in any image tool.
Start with the photos
Use a clear, well-lit shot of each face, looking toward the camera. Sunglasses and heavy shadow make it harder to keep the likeness. You do not need a photo of the two of you together, because one portrait of each is enough.
What goes in the prompt
- One photograph. Say that both people appear together in a single real photograph. We write it outright: not a collage, not a split screen.
- The faces. Name faces, hairstyles and skin tones as the part to keep. Then say that the setting and the light are new, so the engine does not copy the background of one of your uploads.
- The clothes. Our preset keeps what each person wore in their upload, and the prompt says so instead of leaving it open. Do the same in yours.
- A moment, not a pose. Dancing barefoot in a kitchen or laughing under one umbrella reads as a photo someone took. A held pose reads as a studio portrait.
- The place, the light and the camera, one short line each.
Six prompts to copy
Each is written for two uploaded photos. Swap the place and the light and keep the order.
One real photograph of the two people from the uploaded photos, together in a small kitchen on a weekday morning. Keep both faces, hairstyles and skin tones exactly as uploaded, and keep each person's own clothes. They are barefoot on a wooden floor, slow dancing to the radio on the shelf, one hand on a shoulder, both laughing at something out of frame. New room, new light: soft window light from the left. Shot like a phone photo taken by a friend. Not a collage, not a split screen.
One real photograph of the two people from the uploaded photos, together in a living room late in the evening. Keep both faces, hairstyles and skin tones exactly as uploaded, and keep each person's own clothes. Their foreheads rest together with eyes closed, one hand on the back of the other's neck. New room, new light: a single warm lamp, shallow depth of field, fine film grain. Not a collage, not a split screen.
One real photograph of the two people from the uploaded photos, together on a city sidewalk in sudden rain. Keep both faces, hairstyles and skin tones exactly as uploaded, and keep each person's own clothes. They share one small umbrella, both soaked, one of them laughing with their head tipped back. New street, new light: overcast daylight with shop lights reflecting on the wet road. 35 mm film look. Not a collage, not a split screen.
One real photograph of the two people from the uploaded photos, together on a city rooftop at blue hour. Keep both faces, hairstyles and skin tones exactly as uploaded, and keep each person's own clothes. One stands behind the other with arms around them, both looking out at the skyline while the sky turns deep blue and windows light up across the roofs. Wind in their hair. Natural dusk light, no flash. Not a collage, not a split screen.
One real photograph of the two people from the uploaded photos, together at a weekend market. Keep both faces, hairstyles and skin tones exactly as uploaded, and keep each person's own clothes. They share a paper cup of coffee, one pointing at something out of frame while the other looks at them instead. New place, new light: midday sun, slightly crooked phone framing. Not a collage, not a split screen.
One real photograph of the two people from the uploaded photos, together on a train platform waiting for a late train. Keep both faces, hairstyles and skin tones exactly as uploaded, and keep each person's own clothes. They share one pair of earbuds and one bumps the other's shoulder, both laughing. New place, new light: cool station light and a blurred train in the background. Not a collage, not a split screen.
These are examples of the shape above. Results vary between runs and between photos, so generate more than one.
What it looks like
Both samples below were generated from text alone, so there are no input photos to compare against. Results from your own photos will differ.
Common problems
- The faces drift. Use a front-facing, evenly lit photo of each person. Sunglasses and hard shadows make the likeness harder to keep.
- You wanted a wedding look. Two of Us keeps the clothes from your photos. For gowns and a ceremony, use Wedding Photo with the same two photos.
- The upload is refused before anything runs. The effect takes one or two photos. A wrong number is caught at submission, before any credits are charged.
- The engine declines a photo or the run fails. The credits for that run are refunded.
