STRICT FACE LOCK — ORIGINAL FACE IDENTITY PRESERVATION
Prompt Instruction Payload
Create an ultra-realistic, cinematic nighttime portrait using the uploaded reference image as the primary reference. 1. FACE LOCK — HIGHEST PRIORITY Preserve the original person's facial identity as accurately as possible. - Maintain the same face shape, forehead, eyebrows, eyes, nose, lips, jawline, and facial proportions. - Preserve the original skin tone, natural skin texture, mustache, and light beard. - Keep the same thick, medium-length, naturally curly black hairstyle with textured strands falling over the forehead. - Maintain the original facial expression and downward gaze. - Do not replace the face, change identity, reshape facial features, or apply artificial beautification. - Avoid plastic skin, excessive smoothing, and facial distortion. 2. ORIGINAL OUTFIT Keep the same outfit as the reference image: - Oversized plain white T-shirt with short sleeves. - Loose black cargo trousers with realistic pockets. - Black smartwatch on the wrist. Preserve the clothing colors, fit, folds, and fabric texture. 3. POSE AND BODY LANGUAGE A young South Asian man stands casually on a dark road at night, with his head slightly tilted downward and both hands resting inside his trouser pockets. Maintain the original relaxed posture, natural shoulder position, body proportions, and full-body composition. 4. CINEMATIC NIGHTTIME BACKGROUND Create a dark outdoor road with a slightly wet, reflective surface. Use a deep black background, subtle distant streetlights, and a bright white backlight behind the subject to create a beautiful rim-light effect around the hair, shoulders, and arms. Keep the surroundings minimal, atmospheric, and realistic. 5. LIGHTING AND CAMERA Professional DSLR photography, cinematic low-key lighting, dramatic backlighting, natural skin tones, realistic shadows, sharp hair details, detailed clothing texture, shallow depth of field, subtle reflections on the road, and premium cinematic color grading. Maintain the original composition and the contrast between the bright white T-shirt and dark background. 6. IMAGE QUALITY Ultra-photorealistic, high-resolution portrait, realistic anatomy, accurate hands, natural skin texture, crisp facial details, professional photography, and balanced highlights. Enhance clarity without changing the original person's recognizable appearance. 7. NEGATIVE PROMPT Different person, face replacement, altered facial features, changed hairstyle, artificial skin, excessive retouching, distorted hands, extra fingers, incorrect body proportions, different clothing, cartoon effects, oversaturated colors, blurry face, unrealistic lighting, and identity drift. FINAL RESULT: A cinematic nighttime portrait of the same person, preserving the original face, curly hairstyle, white T-shirt, black cargo trousers, smartwatch, relaxed pose, and dramatic backlighting. Priority: Maximum face identity preservation, natural realism, and original-photo fidelity. Aspect ratio: 2:3 vertical. Insert discreet watermark in the lower right corner of the image, vertical text (rotated 90°), written "aipromptlabs.online", Calibri Light font, white color with low opacity (semi-transparent), medium size. Extreme sharpness on the face, fabric texture and typography of the letters. Shot on Canon EOS R5, 50mm f/2.8, studio light.
