Keep two faces individually readable
Avoid facial overlap
Noses, mouths, and eyes should remain clearly separate even in a close pose.
Use a similar depth
Large differences in distance from the imagined camera can make one face disproportionately large or blurred.
Crop with intention
Leave enough space around hair and chins. Avoid cutting through the part of the gesture that explains the pose.
Review small features at a larger size
AI-generated portraits can change facial details, hands, clothing, and the scene. Review both people before sharing. Exact likeness is not guaranteed.
Each person separately
Compare eyes, brows, nose, mouth, face shape, and familiar asymmetries for both adults.
Contact and boundaries
Inspect hair, ears, shoulders, and any hand near a face for merged edges or extra features.
Likeness limits
A close crop makes changes easier to see. Exact likeness, expression, and skin detail are not guaranteed.
Choose the expression before the background
Start with a direct look, a shared glance, or a little more space. Use clear reference photos that meet the creation flow’s requirements.
Reference photos for both people
Use clear photos of Person A and Person B and confirm that both adults agree to this use.

Questions about the closer crop
Does a close-up guarantee better likeness?
No. It makes facial details more prominent, which can make changes easier to notice. Review both adults separately.
Do we need to kiss or touch foreheads?
No. A shared glance, a small lean, or shoulder-to-shoulder spacing can create closeness without covering features.
What background suits a close portrait?
A quiet wall, soft foliage, or a plain studio-style backdrop lets expression remain the focus.
What should we check before sharing a close-up?
Inspect facial features, hairlines, ears, skin detail, and any point where faces, hands, or shoulders meet. Look at more than the overall mood.
