IDENTITY PRESERVATION INSTRUCTION:
Using the uploaded photo as the primary reference, you must preserve the person's exact facial features, face shape, eye color, skin tone, and unique identifying characteristics. Maintain the authentic likeness and identity throughout the transformation while enhancing the image for a professional book cover context.

TRANSFORMATION DESCRIPTION:
Transform the uploaded photo into a sophisticated autobiography book cover portrait. The subject should appear thoughtful, confident, and engaging, suitable for a memoir or biography cover. The portrait should convey a sense of wisdom, experience, and personal narrative. Apply subtle enhancements to create a polished, publication-ready look that maintains authenticity while elevating the visual impact.

STYLE AND AESTHETIC PARAMETERS:
- Art style: Photorealistic cinematic portrait with professional photography quality
- Lighting: Dramatic yet soft studio lighting with key light from 45-degree angle, subtle rim lighting to separate subject from background, gentle fill light to maintain natural skin texture
- Color palette: Rich, warm tones with cinematic color grading. Deep, saturated colors with professional contrast. Skin tones should be natural and flattering with subtle warmth
- Mood: Authoritative, contemplative, sophisticated, and emotionally resonant
- Background: Professional studio background in deep charcoal or navy blue with subtle texture. Alternatively, a softly blurred library or study environment with warm ambient light. Background should be elegantly out of focus to keep attention on the subject
- Composition: Classic portrait framing with subject positioned slightly off-center using rule of thirds. Shoulders and upper torso visible. Strong eye contact with camera
- Post-processing: Professional retouching with natural skin texture preserved. Subtle color grading for cinematic feel. No heavy filters or artificial effects

TECHNICAL QUALITY PARAMETERS:
- High resolution, 4K, detailed
- Sharp focus on face and eyes
- Professional quality suitable for commercial book cover printing
- Aspect ratio: 3:4 vertical portrait format (standard book cover dimensions)
- Print-ready quality with high DPI
- Natural skin texture with visible pores and fine details
- Professional color grading and contrast

NEGATIVE PROMPT GUIDANCE:
Avoid: distorted facial features, unrealistic proportions, blurry face, loss of likeness, artificial skin smoothing, over-processed appearance, unnatural lighting, harsh shadows, color banding, pixelation, low resolution, amateur quality, cartoonish effects, heavy filters, plastic-looking skin, unnatural eye enhancement, excessive retouching that removes character

ADDITIONAL NOTES:
Ensure the portrait has a timeless quality that would look appropriate on a book cover for years. The image should work well in both color and could convert gracefully to black and white if needed. Maintain a balance between polished professional quality and authentic human character.
