Midjourney Realistic Portraits - Copy Paste Prompts

Here is a set of prompts that you can use to generate realistic portrait AI images in Midjourney. You can easily copy paste from below.

Portrait of a young woman sitting on a chair, looking at the camera. Daytime natural light, soft shadows, high resolution, photorealistic. And then add some camera for even more realism.

The next one with a "different" camera.
