The complete prompt

Create a highly realistic vintage Indian portrait photography series using my uploaded personal photo as the PRIMARY and ONLY identity reference for the woman.

IMPORTANT IDENTITY INSTRUCTION:
The woman in the final images must be unmistakably the SAME PERSON as in my uploaded photo. Preserve her exact recognizable facial identity and natural facial structure. Do NOT replace her face with the woman from any reference image, a model, celebrity, or AI-generated face.

Preserve exactly:
- natural face shape and proportions
- forehead shape
- eyes, eye shape, eye spacing and natural gaze
- eyebrows and their natural shape
- nose shape, bridge and proportions
- lips, lip shape and natural proportions
- cheeks and cheekbones
- jawline and chin
- natural facial asymmetry
- natural skin tone
- natural age appearance
- recognizable facial identity

Do not beautify, reshape, slim, enlarge, sharpen, smooth or redesign the face.
No face morphing.
No artificial facial symmetry.
No plastic-looking skin.
No generic AI-model appearance.
The result must look like a real photograph of the SAME woman.

Use the uploaded reference images ONLY for:
- clothing inspiration
- hairstyle
- styling
- jewellery
- pose
- body positioning
- environment
- composition
- lighting
- vintage photographic character

Do not copy the identity of the reference-model woman.

OVERALL VISUAL STYLE:
A believable Indian vintage photograph with an authentic late-1980s/early-1990s family-photo and old Bollywood editorial feeling. It should look like an actual photograph taken on a vintage film camera, NOT a modern AI-generated image pretending to be old.

Natural analog film characteristics:
- subtle warm cream and brown tonal palette
- slightly faded colors
- gentle film grain
- fine photographic texture
- tiny natural imperfections
- slightly soft vintage lens rendering
- realistic shadows
- natural highlight roll-off
- mild film haze
- subtle aged photographic character
- authentic exposure variation
- realistic skin texture
- individual hair strands visible
- natural fabric texture
- realistic depth of field

Avoid excessive sepia.
Avoid orange skin.
Avoid heavy Instagram filters.
Avoid cinematic CGI lighting.
Avoid excessive HDR.
Avoid artificial sharpening.
Avoid waxy skin.
Avoid smooth plastic skin.
Avoid obvious AI texture.
The final image must pass as a genuine old photograph.

HAIR:
Long, naturally thick, dark brown-to-black hair with large soft waves and loose volume. Hair should look naturally styled rather than digitally sculpted. Preserve individual strands, flyaway hairs and realistic texture. The hair falls naturally around the shoulders and down the back.

The salwar/trousers are deep maroon/burgundy with a small traditional floral/block-print pattern.

A long deep maroon/burgundy printed dupatta is draped naturally around the body. The dupatta contains intricate traditional floral and ornamental block-print motifs in cream, beige and muted earthy tones, with a decorative patterned border.

The clothing must have realistic cotton/textile texture, natural folds, wrinkles and weight. Do not make the clothing glossy or digitally perfect.

JEWELLERY:
Traditional understated Indian jewellery:
- small-to-medium traditional jhumka earrings
- multiple thin traditional bangles on both wrists
- simple small nose stud/nose pin if compatible with my uploaded identity reference
- no excessive jewellery
- no contemporary fashion accessories
