Midjourney Japanese Girl

A style LoRA for Krea 2 that brings the Midjourney photoreal look — soft film colors, warm side light, deep shadows, background blur and the typical "Midjourney face" — to portraits of Japanese women. Trained on 48 Midjourney images of adult women in their 20s and 30s.

Trigger

mjjpg — start your prompt with mjjpg.

Recommended settings (tested)

• Model: Krea 2 Turbo (fp8), text encoder qwen3vl_4b, VAE qwen_image_vae

• 8 steps, CFG 1, euler / simple, empty negative (ConditioningZeroOut)

• LoRA strength: 0.8–1.0 (0.8 and 1.0 look almost the same; 0.7 for a lighter touch)

• Size: 832×1248 (2:3) works well

Camera / color presets

Add one of these sentences at the end of the prompt, exactly as written. Leave it out for the default look. The effect is a subtle color shift, not a different style.

• Shot on Contax T2 with Fujifilm Natura 1600, Black Mist 1/4 filter. — compact film camera, a bit more contrast; great with direct flash

• Shot on Leica M6 with Kodak Portra 400. — slightly warmer film snapshot

• Shot on Canon EOS R5 with RF 50mm F1.2 L. — clean digital, a little more background blur

• Shot on Fujifilm Pro 400H overexposed by two stops. — meant to be airy and pale; currently the weakest preset

Other options learned from captions

• Light eyes: pale grey eyes (tends to make the face look more mixed/Western — drop it or lower the strength to keep a Japanese look)

• Body: slender build with a small bust and narrow hips / average build with a medium bust / curvy figure with a full bust and wide hips

• Age: in her 20s / in her 30s

• Framing: close-up portrait / upper body shot / thigh-up shot / full body shot, and from the front / in three-quarter view / in side profile / from behind, looking back over her shoulder

• Makeup: red lipstick / smoky eye makeup / glossy pink lips

• Light: write the direction, e.g. with soft light from the left, lit by direct flash, with backlight from the setting sun

Prompt template

mjjpg. A full body shot from the front of a Japanese woman in her 20s with a long black braid. She wears a white linen dress and brown sandals, standing with both feet on the sand, looking at the camera with a soft smile. She stands on a beach at sunset, with backlight from the setting sun.

Captions were written as natural English in this order: trigger → framing and person → clothes, pose and expression → place and light direction → camera sentence. Prompts in the same order work best. Every showcase image includes its full prompt.

Notes

• The style works even with very short prompts (e.g. mjjpg. a Japanese woman in a cafe); the presets and options need the exact wording above.

• Full body shots work — mention shoes and the floor/ground (standing with both feet on the floor).

• Text on signs comes out garbled (base model limitation).

• All training images show adults. Not intended for NSFW use.
