Turn Your Selfie Into an Instagram Story Poll Card AI Prompt

This prompt creates a ready-to-finish Instagram Story card from a selfie. It places the portrait in a strong mobile composition, keeps the top and bottom interface-safe areas clear, and deliberately leaves the question space blank so the final poll text can be added cleanly in Instagram.

What This Prompt Changes

  • Reframes the selfie into a vertical 9:16 Story composition
  • Keeps the face, identity, clothing and natural expression unchanged
  • Leaves a blank lower area for a question and native poll sticker
  • Protects the top and bottom interface-safe zones from important details

How to Use It

Upload a portrait to ChatGPT or Gemini and specify whether the subject should sit upper, center or lower in the Story. Add the actual question, poll choices, music and stickers afterward inside Instagram rather than asking the image model to render them.

Customize the Result

  • Choose a clean pastel, bold color-block, neutral or blurred-photo background
  • Place the subject left, right or centered with blank space for the poll
  • Use a selfie, product photo, outfit choice or beauty comparison as the Story subject

AI Photo Editing Prompt

PromptUse the uploaded selfie as the exact identity, face, hair, clothing, expression and lighting reference. Reframe it into a polished vertical 9:16 Instagram Story poll card. Keep the subject sharp and naturally recognizable, positioned in the upper two-thirds with comfortable breathing room around the head and shoulders. Create a clean soft-color background that complements the original photo and leaves a generous completely blank lower area for the creator to add a question and native poll sticker later. Keep the top notification area and bottom reply/interface area free of important facial or clothing detail. Do not generate any text, letters, numbers, poll choices, icons, Instagram interface, logo or watermark. Preserve natural skin texture and realistic phone-photo quality.
