What Can You Create with Nano Banana?
From a new product scene to a fresh take on a portrait, start with the image you want to make.
Product Images and New Scenes
Create product concepts from text or place an existing product in a new setting. Explore studio backgrounds, lifestyle scenes, and seasonal visuals for a shop or campaign.
Photo Edits and Style Changes
Give a portrait a different outfit, replace a background, or transform a photo into an illustration. Use an existing image as the starting point for a new look.
Compositions from Multiple Images
Bring a subject, setting, and visual style together from separate references. Build a scene around your own photos instead of describing every element from scratch.
Characters and Visual Series
Explore a character in different settings or develop a set of related images for a story. Reuse reference images to guide the appearance across scenes.

Keep the Details That Matter
Use these editing tips when a result needs another pass.
Change One Thing at a Time
For a difficult edit, resolve the main change first. Save a result that works before refining the lighting or adding another element; return to that version if a later edit loses useful details.
Check Small Details
Read lettering at full size and inspect faces, product labels, and edges. If something is wrong, describe the specific correction instead of requesting a general improvement.
Compose for the Final Format
Choose an aspect ratio for the intended placement. Leave space around the main subject and any lettering so the image still works in a banner, post, or product listing.
Take Your Image Further
Continue with a photo edit, build a new product visual, or turn a finished image into a video.
