Most Nano Banana Pro prompts you find online are a grab bag: anime portraits, figurines, a floor plan, a steak. Not much help when a client wants three Instagram visuals and a flyer by tomorrow. This is the marketing version: a short prompting guide, then 25 prompts sorted by the job you are doing, each with a note on why it works and what to swap.
The model facts below come from Google's own docs and launch posts, checked in September 2026. Nano Banana Pro is Google DeepMind's name for Gemini 3 Pro Image; its faster sibling Nano Banana 2 is Gemini 3.1 Flash Image. The prompts work in both.
How to write Nano Banana Pro prompts (the 60-second guide)
Nano Banana Pro is built on Gemini 3 Pro, so it reads a prompt like a brief, not a keyword list. Google's prompting tips for Nano Banana Pro and the Google Cloud prompting guide land on the same structure:
- Subject. Physical detail. "A matte black bottle with a bamboo lid" beats "a bottle".
- Setting and action. "On a wet slate counter after a workout."
- Lighting. "Soft window light from the left", "three point softbox", "golden hour backlight".
- Camera. "Eye level medium shot, 85mm, shallow depth of field."
- Style. "Editorial product photography", "flat vector illustration".
- Text, in quotes. The headline "SUMMER SALE" in a bold white sans serif. Quoting the exact words is the biggest lever for accurate text.
- Aspect ratio. Both models support 1:1, 3:2, 2:3, 3:4, 4:3, 4:5, 5:4, 9:16, 16:9 and 21:9, at 1K, 2K or 4K.
Three habits that matter more than any single word:
- Attach references for anything that must stay consistent. Per the Gemini API image docs, you can mix up to 14 reference images; Nano Banana Pro keeps up to 6 objects, 5 people and 3 style references consistent. Upload the real product, the real label, last month's shot.
- Iterate in the same conversation. "Warmer background", "move the bottle left", "same scene, 9:16". Google recommends follow ups over rewriting.
- Say "no text" when you will add real type later. Cleaner image, and you keep control of fonts and spelling.

25 Nano Banana Pro prompts for marketing, sorted by job
Copy the prompt, swap the details, keep the structure. Each "Change" note names the variable that matters most.
Instagram and social post visuals
Photo first, so captions and overlay text stay editable.
1. Lifestyle product moment
Hands holding a ceramic coffee mug with a small blue logo mark, steam rising, on a sunlit cafe table with a croissant and an open notebook. Soft window light from the right. Eye level close up, 50mm, shallow depth of field. Warm editorial lifestyle photography. No text. 4:5 aspect ratio.
Why it works: hands and steam add motion and scale; 4:5 fills the feed. Change: the product and the setting your buyer lives in.
2. Announcement tile with a headline zone
Flat lay of pastel gift boxes on a peach background in a neat grid, one box open showing tissue paper. Top down view, even soft studio light. Leave the center third completely empty for a headline. No text. 1:1 aspect ratio.
Why it works: the empty center is a layout instruction, so the image is built for an overlay. Change: the background to a brand color.
3. Quote post background
Abstract gradient from deep violet to warm orange with soft grain and a faint diagonal light streak in the upper left. Low contrast, nothing in focus, made to sit behind large white text. No text. 1:1 aspect ratio.
Why it works: quote backgrounds should lose to the words, and this one is designed to. Change: your two brand colors.
4. Before and after split
Two panel split. Left: a cluttered desk with tangled cables and paper piles, dull overcast light. Right: the same desk tidy with one laptop, a plant and a cable organizer, bright daylight. Same eye level 35mm angle in both. Thin white divider. Photorealistic. No text. 1:1 aspect ratio.
Why it works: the model follows panel instructions, and "same angle" keeps the comparison honest. Change: the two states your product fixes.
5. Carousel cover
A single ripe strawberry on a glossy white surface with a hard dramatic shadow, low angle, slight tilt. Punchy studio light from the top left. Bottom 40 percent of the frame kept empty. High end food advertising. No text. 4:5 aspect ratio.
Why it works: one object, one shadow, one empty zone reads at thumbnail size. Change: the object; keep the empty zone.

Flyers and posters
Google calls Nano Banana Pro its best model for legible in image text. Lean on it, but keep every string short and quoted.
6. Event poster
Vertical concert poster. Silhouette of a saxophone player against a smoky teal stage with two crossing spotlights. Headline "LATE NIGHT JAZZ" in tall condensed white capitals at the top, "Friday 8pm" in a smaller white sans serif at the bottom. Grainy screen print texture. 2:3 aspect ratio.
Why it works: two short quoted strings with positions and fonts is exactly the pattern Google recommends. Change: the copy and the instrument.
7. Sale flyer
Retail sale flyer. White running sneakers floating over an electric orange background with a soft drop shadow. Bold black "40% OFF" in a heavy geometric sans serif upper left, "This weekend only" smaller below. Crisp studio lighting. 3:4 aspect ratio.
Why it works: one product, one number, and heavy fonts render more reliably than thin ones. Change: discount, product, background.
8. Restaurant special
Wood fired margherita pizza on a rustic board with basil and chili oil, shot from above under warm tungsten light. Along the bottom edge, a dark green band with "Tuesday Special" in a cream serif. Editorial food photography. 4:5 aspect ratio.
Why it works: text in its own band stays readable and does not fight the food. Change: the dish, the band color, the day.
9. Workshop poster
Minimalist poster. A large frosted glass sphere on a pale grey floor, soft studio light with a violet rim light. Headline "Design Systems 101" in a modern black grotesque across the top third, "Free online workshop" smaller below. Lots of negative space. 2:3 aspect ratio.
Why it works: one abstract object plus negative space feels premium and gives words room. Change: the headline and the object.
10. Open house flyer
Modern two story house at dusk, warm interior lights glowing, neat lawn, blue purple sky. Wide shot from across the street, slightly low angle. A white band across the top with "OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY" in navy capitals. Photorealistic architectural photography. 3:4 aspect ratio.
Why it works: dusk sells homes, and a full width band is the safest place for text. Change: attach a photo of the real listing as a reference.
Product shots and mockups
The product must look like the product, so attach real photos whenever you can.
11. White background listing shot
Using the attached product photo as the exact reference, place the product centered on a seamless pure white background. Three point softbox lighting, soft natural shadow underneath, no reflections. Straight on eye level, 100mm. No text. 1:1 aspect ratio.
Why it works: "exact reference" plus a named lighting setup gives a marketplace ready image without a reshoot. Change: ask for a three quarter view for shoes and bags.
12. Pedestal hero shot
Frosted glass skincare bottle on a round travertine pedestal, a soft beam of light from the upper left, a gentle rim light on the right edge, smooth sand colored backdrop. Close up, slight low angle, 85mm, shallow depth of field. Luxury beauty advertising. No text. 4:5 aspect ratio.
Why it works: pedestal, backdrop and two named lights is the classic beauty setup. Change: pedestal material and backdrop color to match your packaging.
13. Lifestyle in context
Grey linen tote bag hanging from a bentwood chair in a sunny kitchen, tulips and a loaf of bread on the table. Daylight from a window on the left. Medium shot, eye level, 35mm. Warm Scandinavian lifestyle photography. No text. 4:5 aspect ratio.
Why it works: the product is in use and the scene says who buys it. Change: the room and props to match your customer.
14. Packaging mockup
Using the attached label design, apply it to a matte kraft paper coffee bag with a folded top. Three bags in a row on a light oak shelf against white tiles. Soft even retail lighting, straight on. Photorealistic mockup, label legible and undistorted. 3:2 aspect ratio.
Why it works: Google's own tips highlight draping artwork onto packaging while keeping lighting natural. Change: add "one bag turned to show the back".
15. Floating tech hero
Wireless earbuds and their open charging case floating in a clean diagonal on a charcoal background with a subtle spotlight and cool blue rim light. Crisp reflections, macro lens, straight on. Tech advertising style. No text. 16:9 aspect ratio.
Why it works: floating parts on a dark ground is the standard tech hero look, and 16:9 fits a banner. Change: the rim light to your brand color.

Brand and campaign imagery
Hero images, seasonal visuals and ad backgrounds. Attach last campaign's shot and say "match this style".
16. Website hero
Wide cinematic shot of a small team around a long table in a bright loft office with exposed brick, one person standing at a wall of sticky notes. Golden afternoon light, slight haze. 24mm, eye level. Right half of the frame kept uncluttered for text. No text. 21:9 aspect ratio.
Why it works: 21:9 is a supported ratio, so you get a true hero crop. Change: the workplace to your industry.
17. Seasonal visual
Cozy autumn scene: a knitted blanket, a steaming mug and a stack of books on a window seat, amber leaves outside. Warm soft light, muted orange and brown palette with one deep violet accent. Medium shot, 50mm. Nostalgic editorial photography. No text. 4:5 aspect ratio.
Why it works: naming the palette keeps a seasonal image on brand instead of generic pumpkin orange. Change: the season and the accent color.
18. Style matched series
Using the attached campaign photo as the style reference, create a new image with the same lighting, color grading, film grain and framing, showing a woman jogging across a bridge at sunrise. Match the reference mood exactly. No text. 3:2 aspect ratio.
Why it works: Nano Banana Pro accepts up to 3 style references, so a series stays consistent for weeks. Change: only the subject and location.
19. Abstract brand texture
Close up of layered translucent glass sheets in violet and orange overlapping at angles, soft light refracting through them with subtle caustic patterns. Macro, abstract, calm and premium, made for use as a background. No text. 16:9 aspect ratio.
Why it works: abstract textures are the most reusable asset you can generate and never look like stock. Change: the material; paper, fabric, ink in water.
20. Testimonial portrait
A friendly shop owner in her forties in the doorway of her flower shop, arms crossed, smiling, buckets of peonies behind her. Soft overcast daylight, natural skin tones. Medium shot, 85mm, slight background blur. Documentary portrait style. No text. 4:5 aspect ratio.
Why it works: a doorway portrait says real person, real place. Change: the trade and setting; keep "documentary" so it stays off stock gloss.
Infographic and explainer visuals
The model renders labeled diagrams, but Google's own tips say to verify every fact in data driven visuals. Use these for structure, then check the words.
21. Three step process
Clean horizontal infographic with three steps joined by thin arrows: a document icon labeled "Brief", a sparkle icon labeled "Generate", a rocket icon labeled "Publish". Flat vector, white background, violet icons, dark grey labels in a rounded sans serif. 16:9 aspect ratio.
Why it works: three single word quoted labels sit well inside the model's reliable text range. Change: the labels; keep them to one word.
22. Stat callout
Minimal square graphic with the large number "72%" centered in a heavy black geometric font, a thin orange underline beneath it, and the small line "of shoppers read reviews first" in grey below. Plenty of white space, subtle paper texture. 1:1 aspect ratio.
Why it works: one number, one line, one font description is the safest recipe for accurate text. Change: the stat, after confirming it against your source.
23. Comparison graphic
Side by side comparison on light grey. Left column titled "Before": a wilted houseplant in a plastic pot. Right column titled "After": the same plant lush in a terracotta pot. Flat illustration, soft shadows, titles in a bold sans serif. 4:3 aspect ratio.
Why it works: column titles are the only text, so the illustration does the explaining. Change: the two states of your outcome.
24. Isometric explainer
Isometric illustration of a small warehouse with three zones: incoming boxes on the left, a sorting table in the middle, a delivery van on the right, joined by a dotted path. Flat vector with soft shading, white background, violet and orange accents. No labels, no text. 16:9 aspect ratio.
Why it works: you add the labels in an editor, so nothing is misspelled. Change: the three zones to your own process.
25. Ingredients or parts card
Top down flat lay of four smoothie ingredients in a neat row on white marble: a banana, a handful of spinach, a glass of oat milk, a spoon of peanut butter, with the finished smoothie on the right. Bright even daylight. Minimal food photography. No text. 4:5 aspect ratio.
Why it works: parts laid out in order is an infographic with no rendered words. Change: the parts and the surface.
How to turn a generated image into a finished design
A generated image is a layer, not a deliverable. The post still needs a headline in your font, the flyer needs an address people can read, the listing needs the exact price.
The manual route: export at 2K or 4K, open it in your design tool, add editable text, your logo and a brand color block, then export per platform. Our guide on how to add text to AI images covers the contrast and spacing rules that keep overlays readable.
The faster route: generate inside the design tool. Krumzi runs the Nano Banana family for its AI images: Gemini 3.1 Flash Image on the Starter and Pro plans, and Gemini 3 Pro Image (Nano Banana Pro) on the Studio and Agency tiers. Paste a prompt from above into the editor and generate there, or describe the whole design in chat and Krumzi builds the layout, sets the copy as real editable text in Google Fonts, pulls colors from your Brand Kit and drops the generated image into place. An AI image costs 5 credits. Then one click removes the background, image masks reshape the photo, filters like duotone or grain unify a batch, and you export at up to 4x or as a 300 dpi PDF. Start from the AI Instagram post maker for social or the AI flyer maker for print.
One rule either way: the model paints the scene, the editor owns the words. That is how branded AI images for social media stay consistent across a month of content.

Common mistakes with Nano Banana Pro prompts
Asking it to draw your logo. It invents something logo shaped and slightly wrong every time. Attach the real logo as a reference, or add it in the editor.
Stacking twenty instructions. Long prompts work when every line describes one scene. Five products, four moods and three fonts should be separate generations. Google also recommends positive framing: "empty street" rather than "no cars".
Skipping the aspect ratio. You get a square and crop away the best part. Use 4:5 for feed, 9:16 for stories, 2:3 for posters, 16:9 or 21:9 for web.
Rendering paragraphs. Google notes small text, fine detail and spelling can still fail. Headlines render well; body copy belongs in the editor.
Paying for Pro on every image. Nano Banana 2 is faster and cheaper and handles most social visuals. Save Pro for text heavy posters, reference based mockups and style matched campaigns. Our AI image generation models comparison covers when each one earns its cost.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Nano Banana Pro free?
Partly. Google says free tier Gemini app users get a limited quota of Nano Banana Pro generations, then fall back to the standard Nano Banana model, while Google AI Plus, Pro and Ultra subscribers get higher quotas. Images from the free and Pro tiers carry a visible Gemini watermark; Ultra subscribers and Google AI Studio users get images without it.
What is the difference between Nano Banana, Nano Banana Pro and Nano Banana 2?
Nano Banana is the original Gemini 2.5 Flash Image model, which Google now calls legacy. Nano Banana Pro is Gemini 3 Pro Image, launched in November 2025 for complex compositions, accurate text and brand consistent mockups. Nano Banana 2 is Gemini 3.1 Flash Image, which Google describes as Pro level quality at Flash speed, with a 512px draft size and extra ratios like 1:4 and 4:1.
Can Nano Banana Pro render text in images?
Yes, and it is the main reason to choose it. Google calls it the best model for legible text directly in the image, in over 10 languages, and it can translate text that is already in a picture. Put the exact words in quotes, describe the font, and keep each string short. For longer copy, generate without text and add it in a design tool.
Can I use Nano Banana Pro images commercially?
Every output carries an invisible SynthID watermark, and Google removes the visible watermark only for Ultra subscribers and AI Studio users. Usage rights depend on the terms of the surface you generate in, whether the Gemini app, the API or a third party tool, so read those terms before using images in paid campaigns.
What resolution does Nano Banana Pro output?
Both Nano Banana Pro and Nano Banana 2 generate at 1K by default and can output 2K and 4K, enough for a full width website hero or an A4 flyer at 300 dpi. Nano Banana 2 adds a 512px option for quick drafts. Generate at 4K when in doubt and let your design tool handle the final export size.
