> Pick a pet, an art style, a background, and an accessory. This free tool assembles the exact prompt to paste into your AI image generator of choice.

## This AI pet portrait generator writes your prompt, not the image

Pick a pet, an art style, a background, and an accessory below. This tool assembles a ready-to-paste prompt for the AI image generator you already use, plus a one-line style preview.

## What goes into your prompt

### Five choices, one prompt

Pet type, art style, background, accessory, and lighting each get a dropdown. Change one and the assembled prompt updates immediately below it.

### An order that renders correctly

Subject first, then style, then setting, then lighting. That sequence is how most AI image tools parse a prompt, not a random template we made up.

### Works with the tool you already have

The output is plain text. Paste it into Midjourney, DALL-E, a photospells transformation, or any other AI image generator that accepts a prompt.

## Three steps from dropdown to portrait

1. **Pick your five options** — Choose a pet type, an art style, a background, an accessory, and a lighting mood from the dropdowns above the output box.
2. **Copy the assembled prompt** — The prompt box updates on every change. Copy it once you're happy with the wording, or add your own detail first.
3. **Paste it into an AI image generator** — Midjourney, DALL-E, a photospells transformation, any tool that reads a text prompt works. The actual generation happens there, not on this page.

## One prompt, several looks

Here is what a Renaissance-style output can look like once you take the assembled prompt into an AI image generator: a cat portrait wearing a small gold crown, painted with the deep shadows and rich brushwork of an old master portrait. Swap the style dropdown and the same cat becomes a watercolor wash or a cyberpunk neon illustration, with no new prompt structure to figure out.

- 8 art styles, from Renaissance oil to minimalist line art
- 6 backgrounds and 6 accessories to mix and match
- Works for dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, horses, and small pets

## Common questions

### Does this tool generate the pet portrait image?

No. It builds the prompt, the wording you paste into an AI image generator such as Midjourney, DALL-E, or a photospells transformation. Generating the actual pixels needs a model on the other end; this tool decides what to tell it.

### Which AI image generator should I paste the prompt into?

Any tool that accepts a text prompt. Photospells transformations work well for pet-specific styling, and general-purpose image generators work too. The prompt is written in plain English on purpose so it travels between tools.

### Why does the order of the prompt matter?

Most AI image generators weight the earlier words in a prompt more heavily. Putting the subject first, then the style, then the setting, then the lighting keeps the output close to what you picked instead of leaving the model to guess.

### Can I edit the prompt after it's built?

Yes. The output box is a normal text field. Add a detail such as "long-haired" or "black and white cat" before you copy it, the tool will not overwrite your edit until you change a dropdown again.

### Is this free?

Yes. Building the prompt costs nothing here. The AI image generator you paste it into may charge per generation; that cost is separate and outside this tool.

### Does it work for pets that aren't dogs or cats?

Rabbits, birds, horses, and small pets like hamsters or guinea pigs are all in the pet-type dropdown. Some styles, like royal court portrait or Renaissance oil, render furred mammals more convincingly than birds; that's a limit of the underlying image models, not the prompt.

### Where does the prompt structure come from?

From how prompt-based image models are documented to read text: subject, then medium or style, then setting, then lighting and composition modifiers. It's a standard structure, not something exclusive to photospells.

### Does the tool store what I build?

No. The prompt is assembled in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere, except an anonymous tool-run signal used to count how often the widget gets used.

## Want the transformation done for you, not just the prompt?

Photospells turns a source photo into a finished portrait with one click, no prompt writing required.
