IDENTITY PRESERVATION INSTRUCTION (CRITICAL!):
Using the uploaded photo as reference, preserve the person's exact facial features, face shape, eye color, skin tone, and unique characteristics while transforming the overall appearance into a professional startup CEO. Maintain the original facial structure, bone structure, eye shape, and all identifying marks to ensure the person remains recognizable.

TRANSFORMATION DESCRIPTION:
Transform the person into a confident, modern startup CEO. Apply a professional business attire consisting of a tailored navy or charcoal blazer with a crisp white or light blue dress shirt (no tie for a modern, approachable look). Style the hair in a clean, professional cut suitable for a tech executive. The expression should be confident, approachable, and visionary - a slight confident smile or determined neutral expression. Add subtle elements of startup culture: modern glasses (if appropriate), a sleek smartwatch, and an overall contemporary business aesthetic.

STYLE AND AESTHETIC PARAMETERS:
- Art style: Photorealistic professional portrait photography, corporate headshot quality
- Lighting: Professional studio lighting with soft key light from the front-left, subtle rim light from behind to separate from background, creating dimension and authority
- Color palette: Professional corporate colors - navy blues, charcoal grays, crisp whites, with subtle warm skin tones
- Background: Modern, clean office environment or abstract corporate background with soft bokeh. Could be a sleek glass-walled office, a minimalist workspace, or a blurred professional setting. Background should be slightly out of focus to keep attention on the subject.
- Mood: Professional, confident, innovative, approachable, visionary
- Texture: High-quality fabric textures on clothing, natural skin texture preserved, professional grooming

TECHNICAL QUALITY PARAMETERS:
- High resolution, 4K, detailed
- Sharp focus on face with eyes perfectly in focus
- Professional quality, corporate photography standard
- Aspect ratio: 1:1 for LinkedIn profile or 4:5 for editorial portraits
- Natural skin texture preserved with realistic pores and details
- Professional color grading with balanced contrast
- Crisp clothing details with visible fabric texture

NEGATIVE PROMPT GUIDANCE:
Avoid: distorted facial features, unrealistic proportions, blurry face, loss of likeness, unnatural skin smoothing, over-processed appearance, clothing that looks costume-like, unnatural lighting, poor quality artifacts, pixelation, uncanny valley effect, mismatched skin tones, artificial-looking hair, stiff or unnatural pose
