The complete prompt

Use the uploaded user photo as the ONLY source of the subject’s identity. Preserve the user’s recognizable facial identity exactly: facial structure, proportions, face shape, forehead, eyebrows, eyes, nose, lips, jawline, cheeks, chin, skin tone, natural skin texture, hairline, and distinctive facial characteristics. Do not copy, blend, replace, beautify, or reinterpret the reference subject’s identity. The final person must unmistakably remain the person from the user photo, regardless of differences in gender, ethnicity, age presentation, or facial features. The user photo supplies WHO the person is; the reference image supplies HOW that person appears, poses, dresses, and behaves.
Recreate the reference image as a highly realistic candid urban street portrait. Match the reference composition, pose, expression, gaze, head position, clothing, accessories, environment, lighting, perspective, depth of field, colors, and photographic character as closely as possible.
SUBJECT & POSE: A young adult woman is seated outdoors on a city street, occupying most of the vertical frame and positioned slightly left of center. Her torso faces generally toward the camera with a relaxed seated posture. Her shoulders are slightly angled, both arms rest naturally in front of her, and her forearms descend toward her lap. Her hands and lower arms are relaxed rather than posed dramatically. Her legs are bent in a seated position and partially visible at the bottom of the frame. Reproduce the same body geometry, limb placement, shoulder position, torso orientation, and relaxed posture from the reference. Preserve realistic anatomy and natural proportions.
HEAD & EXPRESSION: Reconstruct the reference subject’s exact cheerful, friendly facial expression using the user’s identity. The subject has a warm genuine smile with visible upper teeth, gently raised cheeks, relaxed facial muscles, naturally shaped lips, and a bright approachable expression. Eyebrows are relaxed with a subtle natural lift. Eyes are open and engaged. The head is held upright with a slight natural turn toward the camera and a subtle tilt consistent with the reference. Do not use the expression, gaze, or head pose from the user’s source photo; replace them entirely with the reference expression and pose while retaining the user’s identity.
GAZE: The subject looks directly toward the camera/viewer, with both eyes aligned toward the lens. Maintain the same eye openness, direction of gaze, eyelid position, eyebrow placement, and friendly eye contact as the reference. Do not allow the source-photo gaze direction to influence the result.
HAIR & HEADWEAR: Reproduce the reference styling while adapting it naturally around the user’s identity. Dark hair is pulled back away from the face, with a few natural loose strands framing the forehead and cheeks. The head is wrapped with a colorful patterned scarf tied behind the head, featuring a richly detailed red, navy/dark blue, cream, and muted floral/ornamental pattern. The scarf drapes backward and down behind the head and shoulder area. Keep the user’s recognizable hairline and facial identity intact.
CLOTHING: Recreate the outfit precisely: an oversized faded blue denim jacket with prominent washed texture, seams, stitching, collar, front buttons, and rolled-up sleeves. Underneath is a fitted solid deep-red/red crew-neck top. The subject wears high-waisted blue denim jeans with a black leather belt and rectangular metallic belt buckle. Preserve the relaxed casual styling and realistic fabric folds. Add a delicate layered gold necklace, including a small round pendant resting near the upper chest. The subject wears medium-sized gold hoop earrings. A dark brown leather shoulder/crossbody bag strap runs over the shoulder and down along the side of the torso. A rectangular digital wristwatch with a dark strap is visible on the wrist near the lower foreground. Accessories should follow the reference while remaining naturally fitted to the user’s body.
ENVIRONMENT: Recreate a busy sunlit urban commercial street in the background. Behind the subject are storefronts, large windows, building façades, vertical columns/poles, signage, pedestrians, and parked or passing vehicles. A large red Coca-Cola-style beverage billboard/sign is visible in the upper-right background. Do not make the background more prominent than the subject. Include a red vehicle behind and to the right of the subject, partially obscured by her body. Additional pedestrians appear softly blurred in the middle/background. On the left side are urban posters/signage and a large dark speaker or equipment object near the lower-left foreground. Preserve the layered street-life atmosphere and visual density of the reference.
COMPOSITION & CAMERA: Match the reference’s vertical portrait composition and approximately 9:16 aspect ratio. Frame from roughly the upper head to below the knees/lower legs, with the seated subject filling most of the image height. Camera is positioned approximately at eye level or slightly below the subject’s face, at a close-to-medium portrait distance. Use a natural perspective resembling approximately a 50mm full-frame lens, avoiding wide-angle distortion. Keep the subject sharply defined while retaining substantial environmental context. Maintain the same camera-facing orientation, subject placement, cropping, perspective, and visual balance as the reference.
LIGHTING: Reproduce the warm natural daylight of the reference. Soft-to-moderately directional sunlight illuminates the subject’s face and upper body, creating gentle highlights on the skin, hair, denim, jewelry, and scarf. Shadows remain natural and soft, with subtle contrast and no harsh studio lighting. Preserve realistic skin luminosity and accurate color rendition. Include warm sunlit highlights and slightly deeper shaded areas in the surrounding street.
DEPTH OF FIELD: Use shallow-to-moderate photographic depth of field. The subject’s face, eyes, clothing texture, jewelry, and nearby body details should be crisp and highly resolved, while the background architecture, pedestrians, signs, and vehicles gradually fall into soft natural bokeh. Maintain realistic lens blur rather than artificial cutout blur.
VISUAL STYLE: Photorealistic high-end street photography, natural candid fashion portrait, authentic documentary feel, realistic skin texture, physically accurate materials, detailed denim fibers, believable hair strands, natural facial pores, realistic jewelry reflections, subtle filmic tonal rendering, warm urban color palette, high dynamic range without excessive HDR, no plastic skin, no beauty-filter appearance, no exaggerated facial symmetry, no artificial glamour retouching.
IDENTITY CONSTRAINT: Do not make the user resemble the reference person. Transfer only the reference person’s expression, emotion, gaze, head pose, body pose, clothing, accessories, environment, composition, lighting, camera characteristics, and photographic style. The user’s actual identity must remain clearly recognizable and unchanged beneath the transferred expression and styling. Do not alter facial proportions, ethnicity, age identity, gender identity, or distinctive features merely to match the reference.
NEGATIVE INSTRUCTIONS: no identity blending, no face replacement with the reference person, no generic substitute face, no altered facial anatomy, no beautification, no facial reshaping, no different person, no source-photo expression, no source-photo gaze, no source-photo head angle, no exaggerated smile, no closed eyes, no incorrect body anatomy, no extra fingers or limbs, no warped hands, no distorted jewelry, no duplicated accessories, no artificial skin, no cartoon/anime appearance, no studio backdrop, no excessive saturation, no excessive sharpening, no unnatural bokeh, no text artifacts, no random clothing changes.
Final result: a faithful photographic recreation of the reference scene and visual behavior, but with the uploaded user’s exact recognizable identity as the subject.
