15 Production-Ready Nano Banana Pro Prompts (For Work & Clients)
These Gemini AI prompts are built for Nano Banana Pro when you need reliability, clean text, and consistent design.1. Product Consistency Carousel (E-commerce)
Use for: Product pages, carousels, Amazon/Shopify listings
Copy-paste Nano Banana Pro prompt:
Upload: One high-quality product photo on a white background.
Show this exact product in 4 lifestyle scenes: 1) On a minimalist home office desk with a MacBook and coffee. 2) Inside a gym bag with a towel and water bottle. 3) On a restaurant table with wine glasses and candlelight. 4) In an open backpack on a forest hiking trail. Keep the product IDENTICAL in every image: same angle, same materials, same reflections, same color, same logo placement. Adjust only the environment, props, and lighting style. Use natural depth of field. Output 4 separate images at 2000×2000, ready for an e-commerce carousel.
2. Logo Sketch → 8 Professional Variations
Use for: Branding, logo exploration, pitch decks
Upload: Rough pencil sketch of a logo idea on paper.
Turn this rough logo sketch into 8 professional logo variations: 1) Minimalist black line art on white. 2) Gradient blue-to-purple modern tech style. 3) Vintage badge with subtle distressed texture. 4) Neon glow logo on a dark background. 5) Watercolor artistic interpretation with soft edges. 6) Bold geometric version with simplified shapes. 7) Gold foil embossed look on dark card stock. 8) Hand-lettered organic style with natural curves. Keep the core logo concept and symbol recognizable in every variation, but explore clearly different visual directions. Present all 8 versions in a 4×2 grid, each variation clearly separated with a small label beneath it. High resolution, 4K, suitable for client presentations.
3. Remote Team → One Group Photo
Use for: About page, LinkedIn banners, internal comms
Upload: 3–5 separate portrait photos of different people from the team.
Create a single professional group photo that looks like everyone was physically together. Scene: Modern office conference room with large windows and a city view. Natural afternoon light entering from the left. Arrange all people around a conference table in a natural meeting pose: some sitting, one standing and presenting, casual but professional. Match lighting direction and intensity across all faces. Keep each person’s outfit, hairstyle, and appearance exactly as in their reference photo. Ensure shadows, reflections on the table, and perspective are consistent. The final image should look like a real corporate photo, not a collage. 4K resolution, landscape orientation.
4. Localize Product Packaging for 6 Countries
Use for: International launches, packaging mockups, presentations
Upload: Product packaging photo or flat design with English text.
Localize this exact packaging design into 6 language versions: 1) Japanese 2) Arabic 3) Spanish 4) German 5) Simplified Chinese (Mandarin) 6) Hindi (Devanagari script) Translate ALL visible text into the correct language for each version. Preserve the layout exactly: same logo position, colors, shapes, and imagery. For Japanese, keep vertical text where appropriate. For Arabic, use proper right-to-left layout. Make all text sharp, aligned, and professional, as if originally designed in that language. Deliver 6 separate images, each clearly showing the localized packaging, at 4K resolution suitable for print mockups.
5. Minimal Quote Card Design
Use for: Quote Cards, Posters, Social Posts
Upload: Any author quote with author’s name.
Create a premium editorial quote card (Instagram portrait format) featuring a realistic portrait on the left and the quote on the right. The text area should take about two-thirds of the image and the portrait about one-third, with a smooth gradient transition that blends the portrait edge into the background. Use a deep midnight navy background with a subtle gradient (e.g., #07162A → #0B2340). Set the quote text in soft champagne gold (e.g., #E6D3A6) — not orange, not bronze. Use the same champagne tone (or a slightly lighter off-white) for the thin divider line and the author name. Add a large, subtle opening quotation mark in a very low-opacity champagne tint (10–15%). Important: avoid brown/sepia/tan tones completely. Typography (match premium quote-card design): Use a clean, modern geometric sans-serif for the quote (Helvetica/Neue-style, Gotham-style, or similar), with medium weight for the main quote and lighter weight for the author line. Keep it extremely legible (no decorative serif fonts, no script, no heavy stylization). Use generous line spacing and consistent left alignment. Text (must be EXACT, do not change any words, punctuation, capitalization, or spacing): "Mark my words — A.I. is far more dangerous than nukes" Author line (smaller, exact): “Elon Musk” Layout: Place oversized opening quotation marks near the top-left of the text block. Place the quote beneath it, left-aligned. Near the bottom-left of the text block, add a thin horizontal line and place the author name under it. Keep ample padding around all text. No extra icons, logos, hashtags, or additional text. Output: Create a portrait image at 1080×1080 optimized for Instagram, with crisp, sharp, perfectly readable text and a polished magazine-style finish.

How to Write Nano Banana Pro Prompts That Actually Work
After a lot of testing, here’s what consistently helps Gemini AI photo prompts perform better:
1. Be painfully specific about what matters
Bad:
“Make the lighting nice.”
Better:
“5600K daylight, key light from upper left at a 45° angle, soft fill at 30% intensity from the right.”
Nano Banana Pro understands technical language. Use it.2. Brief it like a professional
- A reliable structure for any Gemini AI prompt:Subject – What are we looking at?
- Environment – Where is it? Time of day? Mood?
- Technical details – Camera, resolution, aspect ratio, colors
- Constraints – What must stay the same (face, product, text, layout)?
- Output – How many images, for which use?
When you structure prompts like this, you’re basically writing a mini creative brief.
3. Use “Search the web” for live or factual data
Whenever you need current prices, weather, events, or stats, make sure you say something like:
“Search the web for [X], then…”
That encourages Pro to ground the image in reality instead of guessing.4. Upload reference images with intent
Rough guideline:1–3 images: style or object transfer
4–7 images: complex scenes & compositions
8–14 images: consistency across a series or full mood boards
More images isn’t always better. Pick references that show exactly what you want: lighting, materials, angles, etc.5. Always specify resolution & aspect ratio
If you don’t, you’ll usually get a generic ~1K square that’s fine for tests but useless for:Print (menus, posters, packaging)
Slides & key art
High-end web design
Examples that work well:“4K, 16:9, presentation slide”“300 DPI, 24×36 inch poster”
“Square 1:1, 2000×2000 for Instagram”
6. Be very specific about text
Text is one of Nano Banana Pro’s biggest strengths but only if you tell it what you care about:Fonts & hierarchy: “Bold sans serif headline 2× body size, centered top third.”
Language: “All text in Japanese with proper kanji and kana.”
Placement: “No text crossing faces or important objects.”
