Create from a reference
Image to image, also called img2img, creates a new image from an existing picture and a text prompt. Your reference supplies visual context, such as the subject, layout or colors; your prompt describes the changes. It is useful when you already have a starting image and want to take it further.
Use the Nano Banana workspace for both text to image and image editing. On this page, image to image is selected so you can begin with a reference.
Use an AI image generator from an image to explore a specific change while giving the model a visual starting point.
Try watercolor, editorial illustration, anime or a cinematic treatment. Name the style and the details you want to keep, such as the subject's pose, clothing or the original composition.
Place a product in a studio scene, on a tabletop or in a lifestyle setting. Ask for matching light and shadows, and specify that the product's shape, color and label should stay consistent.
Use a sketch or rough concept as a reference for a more finished visual. Describe the materials, lighting and level of realism you need, then compare the result with your original layout.
Explore a new palette, setting or mood, then use Continue Edit on a result to make another change. Working through one adjustment at a time makes it easier to see what each prompt does.
Upload a reference, explain the edit and review your result in the Nano Banana workspace.
Keep Image to Image selected and upload a JPG, PNG or WebP file. Start with a clear image where the subject is easy to see. The selected model determines the available reference-image and output options.
Write a specific instruction: change the background, restyle the scene or adjust an object. Also name the details to preserve. Choose your model and any available size or resolution settings.
Sign in, check the displayed credit cost and generate. Review the subject, text and edges before downloading. Use Continue Edit if you want to refine the result with another prompt.
Use this structure: keep the important details, change one thing, then describe the finish. Adapt these prompts to your uploaded image, or browse more Nano Banana prompts.
Product photography
Keep the bottle's shape, cap, color and label from the reference. Replace the background with a pale stone tabletop beside a window. Add soft daylight from the left and a realistic contact shadow. Keep the camera angle unchanged.
Photo to art
Turn this portrait into a watercolor illustration on textured paper. Keep the person's hairstyle, clothing, expression and pose recognizable. Use a muted teal and warm neutral palette, with a simple background and soft brushwork.
Sketch to image
Use this room sketch as the composition reference. Keep the window, sofa and table in their original positions. Create a realistic interior with oak flooring, linen upholstery and soft morning light. Do not add extra furniture.
A useful reference and a focused prompt make it easier to judge and improve each result.
Choose a sharp, well-lit image and avoid heavy crops that hide the subject. If the source is blurry, try unblurring the image before making creative edits.
Instead of only saying 'make it cinematic,' specify the lighting change and ask to preserve the camera angle, expression and clothing. Review faces, logos and small text carefully; a generated edit can alter them.
Use image to image for visual changes. For a transparent cutout, use the background remover. To increase the size of a finished image, use the image upscaler.

Practical answers about references, prompts, credits and editing results.
Text to image starts with a written description. Image to image adds an existing picture as a visual reference. Choose text to image for a new concept from scratch, and image to image when you want to change or develop a photo, sketch or design you already have.
Upload a reference in the workspace, write what you want to change and choose a model. Sign in and review the credit cost before generating. When the result is ready, download it or select Continue Edit to use it as the next reference.
Generation uses credits. If your account has free credits available, you can use them for supported image tasks. The cost depends on the selected model, resolution and output count and is shown before generation. See pricing for current plans and credits.
A clear reference and explicit instructions can help preserve recognizable details. State what must stay the same and keep each edit focused. Exact identity, lettering and geometry are not guaranteed, so compare the output with the original before using it.
Yes. Upload the photo and describe the visual treatment you want, such as anime, watercolor or an editorial illustration. Include the pose, objects and composition you want to keep so the prompt covers both the new style and the original content.
The workspace accepts JPG, PNG and WebP images. Reference-image counts and file-size limits depend on the selected model; check the upload area for its current limits. If using several references, explain each image's role in the prompt.
Use the prompt to set the scope: name one change and list the details to preserve. For a larger transformation, describe the new style or scene more fully. This workspace uses natural-language editing; it does not provide a Stable Diffusion denoising-strength slider.
Image to image generates a new result from your reference rather than locking every original pixel. Simplify the prompt, remove conflicting instructions and explicitly name the detail to preserve. Try one edit at a time, using the original again if successive edits have drifted too far.
