Mirror Reflection Portrait✨
Written for ChatGPT. Results and reference-photo support may differ across models.
The complete prompt
Create a highly realistic cinematic portrait using my uploaded photo as the ONLY and EXACT identity reference for my face. Recreate the reference image as closely as possible in terms of composition, mirror reflection, pose, lighting, colors, depth of field, blur, camera angle, and overall aesthetic. Do not copy the reference person's face. My face must remain completely unchanged and recognizable.
FACE & IDENTITY — HIGHEST PRIORITY
- Use my uploaded image to preserve my exact facial identity.
- Keep my natural face shape, proportions, eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, cheeks, jawline and chin exactly as they are.
- Preserve my natural skin tone and facial characteristics.
- No face swap with the reference model.
- No face blending.
- No generic AI-model face.
- No reshaping, beautifying or changing my facial structure.
- Keep realistic natural skin texture and subtle imperfections.
- My face should look like a real photograph of me.
COMPOSITION & MIRROR
- Vertical portrait composition, approximately 4:5.
- Photograph taken while I am looking into a small round/oval handheld mirror.
- The mirror reflection is the sharpest and most important part of the image.
- My real body appears in the foreground, mostly out of focus and softly blurred.
- The mirror is held close to my face.
- Reflection shows my face clearly and naturally.
- The mirror has a dark/black rounded frame.
- One hand holds the mirror naturally from the lower area.
- My other hand is raised beside my face, with fingertips gently touching the cheek/side of the face.
- Natural relaxed fingers and realistic hands.
- Reflection and real-world foreground should align realistically.
HAIR
- Keep my natural hairstyle adapted naturally to the reference.
- Dark brown/black hair.
- Soft loose waves with a slightly messy, effortless appearance.
- Hair naturally framing the face.
- A few loose strands around the forehead and cheeks.
- Realistic individual hair strands.
- Soft shine from the warm ambient lighting.
EXPRESSION
- Calm, soft and slightly playful expression.
- Looking directly toward my reflection/camera through the mirror.
- Relaxed eyes.
- Lips gently relaxed with a subtle pout-like expression.
- Natural facial expression, not exaggerated.
- Keep my actual facial features unchanged.
OUTFIT
- Simple dark/neutral outfit similar to the reference.
- Minimal styling so the focus stays on the mirror reflection and face.
- Natural fabric texture.

HAND & JEWELRY DETAILS
- One hand gently touching the side of my face in the mirror reflection.
- Natural elegant fingers.
- Small delicate ring on one finger if visible.
- Minimal jewelry.

LIGHTING
- Recreate the same warm, moody, cinematic lighting of the reference.
- Warm golden-brown/orange ambient tones.
- Soft light falling across my face.
- Slightly darker surrounding areas.
- Gentle highlights on the eyes, nose and cheekbones.
- No harsh studio lighting.
- Natural low-light photography appearance.
BACKGROUND
- Cozy indoor environment.
- Warm brown, amber and muted green tones.
- Background softly blurred with strong bokeh.
- A window or light source in the background creating soft greenish daylight highlights.
- Subtle environmental shapes visible only through blur.
- Keep the background atmospheric and uncluttered.
DEPTH OF FIELD & BLUR
- Extremely shallow depth of field.
- Mirror reflection and my reflected face = sharp focus.
- Foreground real-world version of me = heavily blurred/soft.
- Smooth cinematic bokeh.
- Natural optical lens blur rather than artificial blur.
- Soft foreground obstruction around the edges.
- Realistic focus transition from blurred foreground to sharp reflection.
COLOR GRADING / FILTER
Match the reference's exact visual mood:

- Slight amber/brown tint.
- Muted colors.
- Soft green highlights in the background.
- Slightly lowered contrast.
- Gentle warm skin tones.
- Subtle film-like softness.
- Natural highlights and shadows.
- No overly bright colors.

FINAL RESULT
The final image should look like a real candid mirror photograph, not an AI-generated image. The composition, mirror, foreground blur, warm filter, lighting, background bokeh and overall mood should closely match the reference.
IMPORTANT IDENTITY LOCK:
MY UPLOADED PHOTO = MY FACE ONLY.
Use the reference image only for composition, pose, mirror setup, lighting, colors, blur, background and photography style. Never use the reference person's facial identity.
