50 Stable Diffusion Photorealistic Portrait Prompts

Stable Diffusion (SD) is the go-to text-to-image generative model for most AI enthusiasts due to its pure open-source nature. Since anyone can use Stable Diffusion for free, many interesting models have been built upon SD that open the door for animation, image interpolation, panoramas, text-to-video, and more.

But the question is, does Stable Diffusion create photorealistic portraits?

Yes, Stable Diffusion can generate photorealistic portraits of living, non-living, or persons who don’t even exist. It can also generate backgrounds for your own portraits. 

What matters is how you prompt. Even though prompts with normal words can sometimes produce beautiful portraits, it is imperative to use photographic keywords to explore a variety of portrait styles. 

You can take reference from the below Stable Diffusion portraits or try free prompt generators to create beautiful portraits and/ or backgrounds for portraits.
