The complete prompt
Use the uploaded user photo as the **ONLY source of identity** for the final subject(s). Preserve each person's exact recognizable identity, including facial structure, proportions, face shape, forehead, eyebrows, natural eye shape, nose, lips, jawline, cheeks, chin, skin tone, natural skin texture, hairline, facial hair where applicable, and all distinctive facial characteristics. Do not copy, blend, substitute, beautify, reshape, slim, age, de-age, masculinize, feminize, or reinterpret the user's identity. The user's original facial expression, gaze, and head position must NOT be transferred; use the reference image only for how the identified person looks and behaves in the recreated scene.
Recreate the reference photograph as closely as possible: an intimate vertical close-up of two people lying or reclining very close together in a dark, minimal indoor setting. The composition is rotated/angled so the two faces occupy almost the entire frame, creating a strong diagonal visual relationship. The upper subject is positioned toward the upper-right portion of the frame, with the face angled downward toward the second person. The lower subject occupies the lower portion of the frame, with the face tilted upward toward the upper subject. Their faces are extremely close, almost touching, creating a quiet romantic moment with strong eye contact and intimate emotional tension.
The upper subject's head is turned and tilted downward, viewed predominantly from the side/three-quarter profile. The forehead and nose angle toward the lower subject. The eyes are open and directed downward toward the other person's eyes rather than toward the camera. The expression is calm, serious, affectionate, intimate, and slightly contemplative, with relaxed facial muscles and naturally closed or gently parted lips. Reproduce the exact eye direction, eyelid openness, eyebrow position, mouth position, head rotation, and subtle emotional expression visible in the reference.
The lower subject's head is tilted backward/upward toward the upper subject. The face is shown in a strong side/three-quarter profile, with the chin raised slightly and the eyes looking upward directly toward the upper subject's eyes. The expression is soft, calm, affectionate, emotionally engaged, and intimate rather than smiling broadly. Reproduce the reference's precise gaze, eye openness, eyebrow placement, relaxed mouth and lips, head tilt, neck angle, and emotional subtlety. The two subjects must clearly be looking into each other's eyes.
Maintain the same physical relationship and framing: faces positioned extremely close together, upper face above and lower face below, with their noses and mouths naturally aligned toward one another. Do not turn this into a conventional centered portrait. Preserve the unusual diagonal composition and tight crop. The frame should contain primarily their faces, hair, ears, portions of their necks, and a small amount of surrounding dark background. Crop naturally near the edges exactly as a candid close-range photograph would, without showing unnecessary bodies or additional people.
Hair should follow the reference composition and naturally frame both faces: dark, loose, slightly tousled hair with individual strands visible around the forehead, temples, and sides of the face. Preserve the user's own hair identity and texture while reproducing the reference's approximate arrangement and direction. If the user's identity is male or female, keep that identity completely unchanged even if the reference subject differs.
Clothing should remain mostly outside the frame because the reference is an extremely tight facial composition. If small portions of clothing become visible at the edges, keep them dark, simple, understated, and consistent with the reference rather than introducing prominent garments or accessories. Preserve any naturally visible small accessory details from the reference only when they can be recreated without compromising identity.
Use a very dark charcoal/black neutral background with no distracting objects, patterns, text, logos, or additional subjects. The environment should feel private, quiet, minimal, and intimate. Keep the background subdued and softly out of focus so all visual attention remains on the two faces and their eye contact.
Lighting should closely reproduce the reference's soft, warm, low-key photographic illumination. Use gentle diffused light falling primarily across the faces, producing natural warm skin tones, subtle highlights on the forehead, nose, cheeks, lips, and eyes, and soft shadows along the jaw, hairline, neck, and facial contours. Avoid harsh studio lighting, strong rim lights, colored neon, excessive contrast, artificial skin smoothing, or glamour retouching. Preserve realistic pores, fine facial texture, tiny imperfections, natural shadows, and authentic skin detail.
Camera perspective: extremely close camera distance, intimate smartphone-style candid photography, approximately 50–85mm equivalent portrait perspective with minimal distortion, positioned close to the subjects at approximately face level relative to their combined orientation. Preserve the reference's tight crop, shallow depth of field, natural perspective, and strong facial detail. Both faces should remain recognizable and sharply rendered around the eyes while hair and background can fall slightly softer. Do not widen the scene or use an exaggerated wide-angle lens.
Create a photorealistic, natural-looking photograph with realistic skin texture, accurate anatomy, natural facial proportions, realistic hair strands, authentic eye reflections, subtle lip texture, and physically believable shadows. The result should feel like an unposed intimate candid photograph rather than a digitally constructed studio portrait. Preserve the reference image's overall warm, romantic, quiet, emotionally intimate atmosphere.
IMPORTANT IDENTITY RULE: if one user photo is provided, use that person's identity for the corresponding recreated subject; if separate identity photos are provided for two people, preserve each person's identity independently. Never make either person resemble the reference person. USER PHOTO = WHO THE PERSON IS. REFERENCE IMAGE = EXPRESSION, EMOTION, GAZE, HEAD POSITION, POSE, COMPOSITION, LIGHTING, ENVIRONMENT, AND STYLE. Do not allow the source photo's original expression, gaze, head angle, or pose to override the reference.
Final image: vertical portrait orientation matching the reference, approximately 9:16 aspect ratio, extremely tight close-up, two-person intimate composition, natural warm low-key lighting, dark background, realistic photography, high facial detail, authentic skin texture, subtle depth of field, exact reference gaze and emotional interaction, and faithful recreation of the reference composition.Copy the complete prompt and use your own reference photos where requested.
