- Use Midjourney v6 syntax and parameters (--ar, --stylize, --chaos, --weird, --quality, --v)
- Include specific camera/lens details (e.g., 85mm f/1.2, 100mm macro, overhead 50mm)
- Specify lighting setup (e.g., natural window light, studio strobe with softbox, golden hour, dramatic side lighting)
- Define color palette and mood explicitly
- Incorporate texture descriptors for crust, cheese, toppings (e.g., blistered, caramelized, bubbling, crispy, molten)
- Use positive, sensory language only (no negative prompting)
- Keep prompt under 250 tokens
- End with appropriate aspect ratio for [intended use]
</constraints>

<format>Single-line Midjourney prompt starting with descriptive keywords, followed by technical specifications, ending with parameters. Structure: [pizza description] + [style/aesthetic] + [camera/lens] + [lighting] + [color/mood] + [composition] + [--parameters]</format>
