After Viral Saree AI Trend, Google Gemini’s Nano Banana Lets Users Recreate Moments With Late Loved Ones
After the saree and 3D figurine trends, Google Gemini’s Nano Banana is now being used to recreate photos with late loved ones. Here’s how to try it with prompts.
The latest Google Gemini Nano Banana trend allows users to recreate vintage-style photographs with late loved ones, sparking an emotional wave on social media.

After taking over Instagram with its AI saree portraits and 3D figurine edits, Google Gemini’s Nano Banana image editor has sparked another emotional trend online. Users are now employing the tool to generate lifelike images of themselves with late loved ones, bringing cherished memories back in a digital form.
💫 What Is the ‘Recreate With Loved Ones’ Nano Banana Trend?
In its very essence, the trend takes off on Nano Banana's advanced features, which can mix two photos so seamlessly that one can hardly tell there were two. Unlike "fashion" or "fun" type edits, here is one that breeds nostalgia-building images into something that feels vintage in nature-the last attempt at a family portrait, or, kindness, something very close to a genuine family snapshot.
Soft tones are applied by the AI, with the application of noise, and faded texture-a look that uncles a little closet full of memories-the appearance of cherished old photographs.
📝 How to Recreate Photos With Late Loved Ones on Google Gemini
Here’s a simple step-by-step guide to try the trend yourself:
- Open the Google Gemini app on your phone or visit the website.
- Select the Nano Banana image editor (look for the banana icon).
- Upload your photo along with the picture of your loved one.
Use this prompt for best results:
"Create a vintage-style photograph with a cool color scheme. The image should display a person (Image A) with their hand put on the shoulder of another (Image B). The atmosphere of the setting should be respectful and soft, giving the feeling of a shared memory and still, loving moment. The photograph should have the subtle aura of the old, washed-out feeling, with a slight grainy texture, marking it timelessly nostalgic."
Hit Enter and wait seconds during the generation of your AI memory.
(Optional) Upscale or tweak the prompt to make your photo more personalized.
🔮 What’s Next for Nano Banana?
With the saree, figurine, and now memory recreation trends going viral, Google Gemini’s Nano Banana continues to show how AI can blend creativity with emotion. The tool is currently free to use, making it accessible for anyone who wants to experiment.
As new styles and prompts spread online, more AI-powered nostalgia trends are expected in the coming weeks.
