The complete prompt
ULTRA-REALISTIC 8K UHD DSLR PHOTOGRAPHIC RECREATION — Use the uploaded SCENE REFERENCE IMAGE as the absolute visual blueprint. Recreate the photograph SAME-TO-SAME with maximum possible fidelity and zero creative reinterpretation. Preserve the exact 2:3 vertical composition, framing, crop, camera perspective, subject placement, proportions, pose, environment, lighting, colors, textures, depth, and photographic character.
SUBJECT & IDENTITY: Preserve the original young male subject exactly as visible. If a [MY FACE] reference is provided, replace ONLY the subject’s facial identity with [MY FACE] while keeping the original head position, facial orientation, expression, hairstyle, body, clothing, and every other scene element unchanged. Preserve exact facial anatomy, face shape, jawline, cheekbones, forehead, eyes, eye spacing, nose, lips, eyebrows, ears, hairline, skin tone, natural skin texture, pores, asymmetry, age appearance, and all defining identity characteristics. No beautification, face reconstruction, facial smoothing, symmetry correction, age alteration, or AI facial redesign.
SUBJECT APPEARANCE & POSE: Young slim male standing naturally on a narrow grassy woodland path, full-body visible from head to shoes. Body positioned slightly angled toward the camera while the head turns toward screen-right. Relaxed posture with shoulders naturally lowered, one arm hanging loosely beside the body and the other hand resting casually inside the trouser pocket. Natural subtle smile with a relaxed, candid expression. Medium-length slightly tousled dark brown hair with soft natural volume and irregular strands.
CLOTHING: Loose white/off-white short-sleeve vertically textured button-front shirt with an open relaxed collar, subtle thin vertical stripe/rib texture, naturally draped fabric and slightly loose fit. Relaxed taupe/gray-brown cargo-style trousers with wide straight legs, visible pockets, realistic fabric folds and wrinkles. Light-colored casual sneakers with natural dirt/texture. Minimal thin necklace visible around the neck. Preserve all garment construction, folds, fit, colors and accessories exactly.
ENVIRONMENT: Quiet natural woodland/meadow setting with dense tall wild vegetation surrounding a narrow grassy path. Darker dense trees and foliage occupy the upper and left background, while sunlit tall grasses and plants dominate the right side. Layered vegetation creates strong foreground, midground and background depth. Natural green, olive, muted brown and warm golden tones throughout.
COMPOSITION & CAMERA: Vertical full-body environmental portrait, approximately 2:3 aspect ratio. Subject positioned slightly right of center, occupying roughly the middle-to-lower portion of the frame, with substantial breathing room above the head. Camera placed around chest/eye-level with a natural perspective and no dramatic distortion. Medium-long telephoto portrait look, approximately 70–85mm full-frame equivalent, moderate compression, natural proportions, camera focused precisely on the subject.
LIGHTING: Warm late-afternoon/early-evening natural sunlight filtering through the trees from the upper-right/background direction. Strong golden rim and edge light outlines the subject’s hair, shoulders and clothing while illuminating the tall vegetation behind and to the right. Subject remains comparatively softly exposed against the brighter sunlit foliage. Long directional shadows extend toward the foreground along the grass. Visible atmospheric sun rays filtering through the canopy, with subtle glowing haze and suspended natural particles in the light.
DEPTH OF FIELD & OPTICS: Shallow-to-moderate DSLR depth of field. Subject sharply resolved while surrounding foliage progressively falls into soft natural blur. Background contains organic circular/irregular bokeh from small openings between leaves and sunlight. Natural lens bloom around bright highlights, gentle highlight roll-off, subtle atmospheric haze, realistic optical falloff, mild vignette, and authentic photographic depth. No exaggerated artificial blur.
COLOR & GRADING: Warm natural golden-hour color grade with subdued forest greens, olive foliage, creamy whites, muted earthy trousers and soft amber highlights. Preserve realistic skin tones and neutral whites while allowing warm sunlight to influence illuminated surfaces. High dynamic range with controlled highlights, detailed shadow retention, soft contrast, natural blacks, cinematic tonal separation, subtle filmic roll-off and realistic DSLR color science.
PHOTOGRAPHIC REALISM: Genuine high-end professional DSLR photograph, 8K UHD detail, physically accurate lighting, realistic skin texture, individual hair strands, authentic fabric weave, natural vegetation detail, realistic grass texture, accurate shadows and ambient occlusion, subtle film grain, natural micro-contrast, clean but organic sharpness, realistic exposure, true-to-life materials, optical depth, and photographic imperfections. Preserve the candid editorial lifestyle-photography character of the reference. The result must look like an authentic photograph captured in-camera, NOT digital art or an AI-generated image.
NEGATIVE PROMPT: cartoon, anime, illustration, CGI, 3D render, plastic skin, AI face, regenerated face, altered identity, beautified face, facial symmetry correction, changed age, changed hairstyle, altered jawline, altered facial proportions, smooth skin, excessive retouching, oversharpening, HDR halos, fake bokeh, excessive blur, studio lighting, artificial lighting, different pose, different clothing, different body proportions, different background, extra people, extra limbs, malformed hands, distorted fingers, duplicated objects, floating objects, oversaturated colors, crushed blacks, blown highlights, heavy vignette, extreme lens distortion, excessive chromatic aberration, motion blur, low resolution, noise artifacts, watermark, text, logo.Copy the complete prompt and use your own reference photos where requested.
