Flux.2 prompts: how to write for photorealism and 20 ready prompts

Alen founder of KADR Updated 2026-10-26 4 min read

Flux.2 is strong at photorealism from scratch, so the best prompt for it describes the shot the way a photographer would: who or what is in the frame, where, what light, what lens and film, what texture. Camera words (85mm, 35mm, shallow depth of field) and light words (window light, golden hour) work especially well with Flux, while «beautiful» and «8K» give almost nothing. Flux.2 Pro costs 4 tokens per image on KADR (kadr-ai.ru), about 6 rubles, and Flux.2 Max 8 tokens, about 13 rubles (October 2026), so you can tune a prompt over dozens of attempts. Below are the structure and 20 ready prompts.

Structure

[Subject and action] + [Place] + [Light] + [Lens and camera] + [Texture and type of shot] + [Format]

What works especially well with Flux:

  • Lens: 85mm for portraits, 35mm for streets and reportage, macro for details.
  • Depth of field: shallow depth of field, bokeh.
  • Light: window light, overcast, golden hour, hard flash.
  • Texture: natural skin texture, film grain, matte.
  • Type of shot: editorial photo, candid street photo, product photography.

What does not work: beautiful, masterpiece, 8K, ultra realistic. They make the image generic and glossy.

The format on KADR (kadr-ai.ru) is chosen in the settings: Flux.2 has 1:1, 3:4, 4:3, 2:3, 3:2, 16:9, 9:16 and 21:9. Where the prompts below say 4:5, choose 3:4.
