Midjourney v6 Portrait Inspirations with Prompt Examples — Edition #2
I’ve mentioned this before, and I’ll say it again — I’m absolutely fascinated by the portraits in Midjourney v6!
Some argue they’re not flawless or might be a bit too stylized, and they’re not entirely wrong. But, let me tell you, those photos look fantastic.
I’ve put together another set of prompt ideas for you to experiment with, complete with examples images.
Just a friendly reminder: all the images were created using Midjourney.
I’m opting for a 16:9 aspect ratio, signaling Midjourney to arrange the subject in a visually appealing way. I typically go for a raw style, aiming to keep the output as faithful to the prompt as I can.
If you’re curious about how to kickstart your journey with Midjourney and activate the v6 alpha version, you can find a link to Edition #1 of this series at the end. Now, let’s take a moment to appreciate these stunning images.
Prompt Inspirations and Examples
1
A closeup portrait of an elderly exclectic man wearing eclectiv clothes, big 60s glasses, posing in front of a one colored background, high key light
This photo holds immense power for me. The vulnerability portrayed through his eyes and facial expression is truly priceless.
2
a glamour closeup photo of a 36 year old woman wearing rocker clothes, red hair, posing in a bar, vogue magazine
This photo exudes a strong sense of allure, yet she maintains a distant and confident aura, demonstrating a precise knowledge of how to pose. And now think about this: she is AI generated.
3
closeup photo of an eccentric young man wearing preppy clothes, glasses, short brown 90s haircut, posing in front of a college, vogue magazine
I’m not sure about the technical details of how Midjourney achieves it, but those AI models consistently produce flawless results that, in my opinion, radiating a subtle sense of fragility.

4
a blonde Swedish woman holding a white cat in her arm, standing at a window, she is wearing a blue retro dress, fashion photograph, editorial vogue, single colored background, bright lightning, canon eos
If you’re familiar with Swedish women, you might agree that she resembles someone from Sweden. The way Midjourney positioned her in the photo is truly magnificent.
5
exteme closeup of a young swedish woman’s full face, giggling, closed eyes, blonde hair, red lipstick, bluish pink eye shadow, blushed cheeks, black eyeliner
6
closeup photo of a graceful old woman with fair skin and some age spots, posing in a garden on a sunny day
This photo carries a graceful quality that evokes memories of elderly individuals in my family or from my childhood. Despite some of the lines on her skin appearing a bit too perfect and parallel, this might just be my favorite photo in the series.
7
closeup portrait of a young pretentious man with a pompadour haircut, looking right into the camera, full lips, preppy clothes, vogue editorial, posing in front of a bike shop in Amsterdam
Similar to image 3, he appears flawless, but unlike the previous picture, I appreciate the authenticity of his skin. It gives off a more genuine vibe, less like something you’d see in an advertisement.
Bonus
And as a bonus here is a portrait closeup of a cute tiger cub.
