OBJECTIVE: Ultra-Realistic Cinematic Café Portrait — Preserve My Exact Face and Identity

Exact Prompt Recipe Scroll to read more
Create an ultra-realistic, high-quality cinematic portrait photograph using my uploaded photograph as the primary reference. 1. FACE AND IDENTITY PRESERVATION — ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL Preserve my exact original identity and facial features from the uploaded reference photo. Keep my original face shape, jawline, eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, skin tone, facial proportions, and other distinctive features completely unchanged. Do not replace my face with another person's face or beautify it to the point that I look like a different person. Maintain my natural skin texture, realistic pores, and authentic appearance. Change only the hairstyle, clothing, pose, accessories, lighting, camera angle, and environment as needed to achieve the described photographic style. The final image must clearly look like me. 2. HAIRSTYLE AND APPEARANCE Give me naturally thick, dark, slightly curly hair with textured volume and a stylish, messy fringe falling gently across my forehead. Keep the hairstyle realistic and naturally suited to my original face shape. Maintain a confident, calm, sophisticated expression. 3. OUTFIT AND ACCESSORIES Dress me in a fitted black short-sleeve polo shirt. Add elegant gold-rimmed aviator glasses with lightly tinted lenses, a premium silver wristwatch with a dark dial, a silver bracelet, a simple metallic ring, and a minimal silver bangle. Ensure every accessory looks realistic and naturally positioned. 4. POSE AND BODY POSITION Show me sitting comfortably at an outdoor café table in a relaxed, confident posture. My head is turned toward the right side of the frame, looking thoughtfully into the distance. Capture a three-quarter side profile with my face, neck, upper body, and forearms clearly visible. Rest my forearms naturally on the table, with my hands casually positioned in front of me. Maintain realistic anatomy, natural body proportions, and believable hand positioning. 5. BACKGROUND AND ENVIRONMENT Create a sophisticated outdoor café setting with lush green plants, softly blurred architectural details, and a dark reflective tabletop in the foreground. Include subtle background elements and natural depth to create the atmosphere of a premium lifestyle photograph. Keep the background softly out of focus so that my face remains the main focal point. 6. LIGHTING AND COLOR GRADING Use warm, directional golden-hour sunlight illuminating my face, hair, and arms. Add beautiful amber highlights, soft natural shadows, deep cinematic blacks, rich forest-green background tones, and a subtle teal-and-orange color grade. Create creamy natural bokeh, balanced contrast, realistic reflections, and a premium cinematic atmosphere. Avoid excessive saturation or artificial-looking skin. 7. CAMERA AND PHOTOGRAPHY STYLE Professional fashion editorial photography, full-frame DSLR or mirrorless camera, 85mm portrait lens, f/1.8 aperture, shallow depth of field, sharp focus on the face, realistic skin pores, high dynamic range, subtle film grain, natural perspective, and professional color grading. 8. IMAGE QUALITY AND COMPOSITION Ultra-photorealistic, 4K-quality detail, natural anatomy, accurate facial details, realistic hands, believable accessories, cinematic luxury lifestyle photography, and a vertical 2:3 portrait composition. The final result should resemble a real professional photograph, not an AI-generated image. 9. NEGATIVE PROMPT Do not change my identity, face shape, jawline, eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, or natural skin tone. No face swapping, different person, artificial skin, excessive skin smoothing, unrealistic facial enhancement, distorted face, asymmetrical eyes, deformed hands, extra fingers, unnatural muscles, incorrect accessories, cartoon, anime, CGI, oversaturated colors, harsh flash, excessive blur, text, watermark, or low resolution. FINAL INSTRUCTION: My uploaded photograph is the authoritative reference for my identity. Prioritize exact facial identity preservation over every other creative instruction. Only modify the styling, pose, lighting, accessories, and environment required to recreate the described café portrait.
