The complete prompt
Edit this photo. Keep the subject's exact facial bone structure, eye
shape and color, nose shape, lip shape, jawline, and skin tone 100%
identical to the original photo. Body build and proportions unchanged.
This is non-negotiable.
LIGHTING SETUP (as a real photographer would dial it in): Key light —
soft late-afternoon sun streaming through an old station's glass
roof, acting as a warm natural key from above and slightly camera-
left, filtered and diffused by dust in the air. Fill — soft bounced
light from the light-colored platform floor, balancing the overhead
key at roughly a 2:1 ratio so shadows stay gentle. Rim light — a
shaft of sunlight grazes her hair and shoulder edge from behind, with
visible soft light beams cutting through the air. Catchlights in her
eyes should be warm and soft.
LENS & OPTICS: Simulate an 85mm lens at f/2.0 — flattering facial
compression, background rendered as soft creamy bokeh with vintage
iron pillars and a blurred train softly visible, gentle fall-off in
sharpness away from the focal point, faint natural vignette at the
corners.
FILM/COLOR SCIENCE: Warm nostalgic film response — sunlit highlights
bloom softly rather than clipping, shadows lifted gently with a warm
sepia tint rather than crushed black, rich warm amber-brown midtones
balancing naturally against her skin tone, slightly muted overall
saturation for a timeless vintage feel.
DIRECTED POSE (as if a photographer is instructing her in real time):
Standing on the platform beside an old iron pillar, one hand resting
lightly against it, a small vintage suitcase by her feet, body angled
at three-quarters to the camera, head turned back over one shoulder
toward the lens as if she just paused mid-walk.
GENUINE DIRECTED EXPRESSION: A soft, wistful smile with gently
relaxed eyes, chin very slightly lowered — the natural composed look
right after a photographer says "just pause and glance back at me,"
not a stiff posed grin.
RETOUCH PIPELINE: Frequency-separation-style retouching — smooth
tonal transitions on skin while fully preserving fine pore-level
texture and natural color variation under the dusty filtered light.
Subtle dodge-and-burn to retain natural facial planes, no flattened
or washed-out glow.
FINISHING: Fine film grain overlay at low opacity, very slight
chromatic softness at the frame edges as a real lens would render, no
digital sharpening halos, natural imperfect crop as if not perfectly
composed in-camera.
Ensure zero facial distortion, correct hand anatomy, and consistent
shadow direction matching the overhead filtered station light.Copy the complete prompt and use your own reference photos where requested.
