The complete prompt
Create an ultra-photorealistic cinematic 1980s Indian vintage portrait of ME, using my uploaded personal photograph as the PRIMARY IDENTITY REFERENCE.
IDENTITY PRESERVATION — EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: Preserve my exact recognizable facial identity from my personal photo. Keep my natural face shape, bone structure, forehead, eyebrows, eyes, eye shape, nose, lips, cheeks, jawline, chin, facial proportions, skin tone, natural skin texture, and distinctive features. Do not replace my face with a generic model. Do not unnecessarily beautify, reshape, slim, age, or alter my facial structure. I should remain immediately recognizable as myself.
Use the uploaded 1980s reference image only for its visual aesthetic, styling, atmosphere, photography, composition, color palette, and period authenticity, not for its person's identity or facial features.
Reimagine me as an elegant young Indian woman photographed around 1980, with authentic late-1970s/early-1980s Indian fashion. Give me naturally voluminous, softly curled vintage hair with a stylish headband or scarf, tasteful statement earrings, classic bangles, and a simple vintage wristwatch.
Dress me in a sophisticated 1980s floral blouse with slightly puffed sleeves, a high-waisted flowing cream floral skirt, a wide vintage belt, elegant cream-colored handbag, and classic modest heels. The clothing should look authentic to the era rather than modern clothing made to look old.
SETTING: A beautiful heritage Indian courtyard with carved stone architecture, traditional pillars, warm sunlight, greenery, and an authentic vintage Indian Ambassador-style car parked naturally in the background.
POSE: Full-body fashion portrait. Relaxed, graceful and confident posture, natural body language, gentle genuine smile, one hand lightly touching the scarf/hair and the other resting naturally near the waist. Avoid stiff posing.
PHOTOGRAPHY: Authentic 1980s analog 35mm film photograph, realistic Indian skin tones, natural facial texture, subtle film grain, soft cinematic focus, slightly imperfect exposure, gentle lens softness, warm sunlight, realistic shadows, shallow depth of field, natural optical characteristics of vintage film photography.
Add subtle aged-film characteristics: warm faded tones, mild color shift, delicate dust particles, tiny scratches, soft vignette, slightly faded highlights, subtle paper texture, and authentic photographic imperfections. Keep the face significantly sharper and cleaner than the surrounding film texture so my identity remains clear.
COLOR PALETTE: warm cream, dusty rose, muted burgundy, golden brown, soft beige and faded vintage tones.
The final image should look like a genuine personal photograph discovered in a family album from 1980, not a modern AI-generated image with a retro filter.
HIGH-FIDELITY FACE + NATURAL SKIN + AUTHENTIC 1980s FASHION + REALISTIC ANALOG FILM + CINEMATIC COMPOSITION + PHOTOREALISTIC DETAILS.
Avoid: plastic skin, excessive beauty retouching, artificial facial symmetry, modern fashion, modern cars, contemporary accessories, exaggerated makeup, cartoon appearance, overly strong HDR, excessive sharpening, distorted hands, extra fingers, warped jewelry, or an obviously AI-generated appearance.Copy the complete prompt and use your own reference photos where requested.
