Christmas 2025 brings festive AI trends, inspired by advanced image generation tools. Google’s **Gemini** features **Nano Banana Pro** (Gemini 3 Pro image model, launching in November 2025), which delivers better editing, character consistency and high-fidelity results. OpenAI’s **ChatGPT** is now integrated with **GPT-Image-1.5** (released in December 2025), with faster generation, precise editing, and better detail preservation.
These tools are adept at transforming uploaded selfies into true-to-life holiday portraits, while maintaining accurate facial features, skin tone and expressions. Upload your photo and add one of these prompts (or change them to your needs) for great results.
**Prompt 1: Snowy outdoor variant**
Transform an uploaded selfie into an authentic Christmas portrait, preserving the subject’s exact facial features, face shape, skin tone and expression. Have the person stand in a snowy village square in the evening, in a light snowfall, in front of a large outdoor Christmas tree with snowdrops and decorations. The cool blue evening light and multicolored lantern lights softly illuminate faces, with fresh garlands in the background, mugs of steaming cocoa and festive stalls in the distance. Cinematic lighting with subtle Bokeh snowflakes for a magical snowy atmosphere.
**Prompt 2: Variant with cozy fireplace**
Transform an uploaded selfie into an authentic Christmas portrait, preserving the subject’s exact facial features, face shape, skin tone and expression. Show the person in a rustic cabin, relaxing in a plush chair near a burning stone fireplace, with a tall decorated tree nearby. Warm amber firelight and twinkling chandeliers cast a soft glow, surrounded by knitted socks, pine garlands and pinecones. Cinematic depth of field for a nostalgic and heartfelt holiday feel.
**Prompt 3: Kitchen Gathering Variant**
Transform an uploaded selfie into an authentic Christmas portrait, preserving precise facial features, shape, skin tone and expressions. Show the subject in a warm family kitchen, on a wooden kitchen island in the midst of holiday baking, next to a simply decorated tree. Soft pendant lights and fairy-like chandeliers emit a golden glow, alongside gingerbread cookies, spiced mugs and wrapped gifts. Cinematic lighting, shallow depth of field, joyous celebration. **Prompt 4: Balcony Snowfall Variant**
Transform an uploaded selfie into a realistic Christmas portrait, preserving accurate facial features, shape, skin tone and expression. Show the subject leaning on a wooden balcony railing overlooking a snowy city at dusk, surrounded by a small decorated tree and garlands. Cool evening light combines with multicolored lights to highlight faces, accompanied by falling snowflakes and a distant festive glow. Cinematic lighting, shallow depth of field, magical stillness.
**Prompt 5: Library Sore Variant**
Transform an uploaded selfie into a stunning Christmas party portrait, preserving accurate facial contours, skin tones and identity. Dress the subject in formal holiday clothing (a crisp suit with a bow tie or a lace evening dress with a brooch). Set it in a wood-paneled library near a beautifully decorated tree, lit by brass lamps and candlelight with a warm golden glow. Cinematic, high-quality holiday photography.
These prompts work best with clear, frontal selfies. Experiment for personalized magic!
