The complete prompt

Create an ultra-realistic, high-resolution conceptual lifestyle photograph matching the reference image as closely as possible in composition, pose, framing, colors, lighting, background, clothing, facial expression, filter, shadows, textures, cartoon interaction and overall photographic style.

IDENTITY & FACE:
If my personal reference photo is provided, use my uploaded photo as the ONLY identity reference. Keep my face exactly the same and unmistakably me. Preserve my exact face shape, eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, jawline, skin tone, facial proportions and all natural facial features. Do not redesign, beautify, reshape, smooth, replace, blend or generate a different face. No face swap. No generic AI face. Keep my identity completely unchanged.

MAIN SUBJECT:
A realistic adult man running toward the right side of the frame while holding a clear plastic cup of iced dark coffee with ice cubes and a black drinking straw in his right hand.

He has a cheerful, slightly playful expression with a natural wide smile, looking toward the camera.

HAIR:
Short, neatly styled black hair with realistic individual strands and natural texture.

OUTFIT:
Simple fitted-to-relaxed medium-gray short-sleeve crew-neck T-shirt with realistic cotton texture, natural folds and subtle wrinkles.

Light-wash blue-gray relaxed-fit denim jeans with realistic denim texture, natural fading, stitching, folds and creases around the knees and thighs.

Clean white low-top sneakers with realistic stitching, rubber soles, subtle shadows and natural material texture.

POSE & ACTION:
The man is captured in motion, running toward the right.

His torso leans slightly forward.

His right arm is bent naturally while holding the iced coffee cup.

His left arm is positioned behind his body.

One leg is planted forward while the other leg is lifted backward in mid-stride.

The running pose must feel natural, energetic and believable.

The shirt is being dramatically pulled backward from the lower-left side by a cartoon stick figure, creating visible stretched fabric and tension wrinkles.

Maintain realistic anatomy and natural body proportions.

CARTOON STICK FIGURE:
On the left side of the image, include a simple black-and-white hand-drawn cartoon stick figure.

The stick figure has:
- Round head
- Simple expressive angry/mischievous face
- Thick black outline
- Two simple arms
- Two simple legs
- White interior
- Minimal hand-drawn illustration style

The stick figure is standing behind the man and pulling the back/lower portion of his gray T-shirt with both hands.

Its body leans backward slightly to show that it is pulling hard.

Add a few small curved motion lines near the stretched shirt to emphasize the pulling action.

Keep the cartoon completely integrated into the real photograph while retaining its hand-drawn black-line appearance.

CARTOON DOG:
At the lower-left side, include a black-and-white hand-drawn cartoon dog.

The dog should look angry and mischievous, with:
- Small compact body
- Pointed ears
- Raised tail
- Large expressive eyes
- Exaggerated angry eyebrows
- Open mouth
- Visible cartoon teeth
- Thick black outlines
- White/light-gray interior
- Hand-drawn sketch appearance

The dog stands beneath/near the stick figure's legs and faces toward the man.

The dog's expression should look as though it is playfully chasing or threatening the escaping subject.

Add a few short curved motion lines near the dog's tail to suggest movement.

INTERACTION:
The most important visual concept is the humorous interaction between the realistic human subject and the illustrated characters.

The stick figure is physically pulling the man's shirt backward while the man continues running forward.

The dog is positioned below the stick figure as another playful obstacle.

The stretched shirt should look physically believable, with realistic fabric tension, folds and distortion.

Do not make the cartoon characters photorealistic. Keep them clearly hand-drawn black-and-white illustrations.

BACKGROUND:
Use a clean minimalist studio environment.

The entire background is a very pale cool gray / soft blue-gray seamless studio wall and floor.

There should be a subtle transition between the wall and floor, with a soft studio gradient.

Keep the background completely uncluttered.

No furniture, no buildings, no scenery, no additional people.

COLOR PALETTE:
Match the reference image exactly:

- Pale cool gray background
- Soft blue-gray tones
- Medium neutral gray T-shirt
- Light washed blue-gray denim
- Bright white sneakers
- Natural warm skin tones
- Dark black hair
- Dark brown-black iced coffee
- Transparent clear plastic cup
- Black straw
- Black-and-white cartoon illustrations

Keep colors soft, muted and sophisticated.

Do not introduce bright colors or colorful backgrounds.

FILTER & PHOTO LOOK:
Match the reference's soft, clean commercial photography filter.

Use:
- Soft cool-gray color grading
- Slightly desaturated tones
- Gentle contrast
- Clean highlights
- Soft shadows
- Natural skin tones
- Subtle film texture
- Slightly matte finish
- High dynamic range
- Smooth studio lighting
- Realistic exposure
- Very subtle photographic grain

The photograph should look like a professionally produced humorous advertising/editorial image.

LIGHTING:
Use large soft studio lights from the front and upper-left.

Create soft diffused illumination across the man's face and clothing.

Very gentle shadows beneath the shoes and body.

Soft contact shadow on the studio floor.

No harsh dramatic shadows.

Keep the background bright but not pure white.

The iced coffee should have realistic reflections, condensation and visible ice.

CAMERA:
Professional full-frame DSLR/mirrorless photography.

Medium-wide editorial lens, approximately 35–50mm equivalent.

Eye-level to slightly low camera position.

Natural perspective without excessive distortion.

Freeze the running motion with a fast shutter speed while retaining a subtle sense of movement through the pose and cartoon motion lines.

High-resolution realistic photography.

COMPOSITION:
Vertical 4:5 composition.

Place the man slightly right-of-center.

Leave enough negative space on the left for the stick figure and cartoon dog.

The man occupies the majority of the right and central portion of the frame.

The stick figure occupies the middle-left area.

The dog occupies the lower-left area.

Keep the complete human body visible, including both shoes.

Maintain clear separation between the human subject and the cartoon characters.

Keep the composition balanced and visually clean.

COFFEE CUP:
A transparent clear plastic takeaway cup filled with dark iced coffee.

Visible ice cubes.

Subtle condensation droplets on the outside.

Black straw extending upward.

Realistic transparent plastic reflections.

Natural grip from the subject's hand.

Keep the coffee dark brown-black.

FACIAL EXPRESSION:
Natural cheerful smile with relaxed eyes.

The expression should communicate humorous urgency, as though the man is happily trying to escape while someone is pulling his shirt backward.

Keep the expression realistic and natural.

PHOTOGRAPHIC DETAILS:
Ultra-realistic 8K detail.

Natural skin pores.

Individual hair strands.

Realistic cotton fibers.

Detailed denim weave.

Visible sneaker stitching.

Realistic rubber sole texture.

Detailed coffee ice cubes.

Realistic plastic cup reflections.

Natural studio floor texture.

Accurate fabric stretching where the cartoon character pulls the shirt.

Soft contact shadows.

Realistic depth and perspective.

IMPORTANT REFERENCE MATCH:
Recreate the same overall visual concept, camera framing, subject placement, running pose, shirt-pulling interaction, cartoon stick figure design, cartoon dog placement, pale gray studio background, soft lighting, muted color palette, photographic filter and humorous editorial atmosphere of the reference.

The final result must look like a real professional photograph combined with intentionally hand-drawn black-and-white cartoon characters.

Do not turn the entire image into a cartoon.

The HUMAN must remain photorealistic.

Only the stick figure and dog should retain the illustrated hand-drawn appearance.

NEGATIVE PROMPT:
No anime, no full cartoon image, no 3D cartoon, no CGI human, no plastic skin, no face alteration, no face replacement, no different person, no generic face, no excessive beauty filter, no extra people, no duplicate subject, no extra arms, no extra legs, no malformed hands, no distorted fingers, no incorrect anatomy, no floating objects, no distorted coffee cup, no colorful cartoon characters, no colorful background, no harsh shadows, no neon colors, no excessive HDR, no oversaturation, no heavy blur, no watermark, no logo, no random text, no border.

OUTPUT:
Ultra-realistic professional editorial photograph, vertical 4:5, soft cool-gray studio color grading, realistic human subject, hand-drawn black-and-white cartoon interaction, high detail, natural textures, clean commercial photography finish.
