**IDENTITY PRESERVATION INSTRUCTION**
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 image to emphasize their inner character and personality. The likeness must remain 100% accurate, maintaining all distinct facial markers and proportions.

**TRANSFORMATION DESCRIPTION**
Transform the portrait to capture and accentuate the subject's unique character traits. The image should convey a specific personality attribute-whether thoughtful, confident, mysterious, or joyful-through expression, posture, and atmospheric elements. The face should remain the clear focal point, with subtle enhancements that reveal the person's essence without altering their fundamental appearance.

**STYLE AND AESTHETIC PARAMETERS**
- **Art Style**: Cinematic photorealistic portrait with artistic depth. The image should have the quality of a professional editorial photograph with subtle artistic grading.
- **Lighting Conditions**: Dramatic yet flattering lighting setup. Use Rembrandt-style lighting or soft directional light that creates depth and dimension on the face. Consider subtle rim lighting to separate the subject from the background. Lighting should enhance facial contours and bring out the eyes.
- **Color Palette and Mood**: Rich, nuanced color grading that complements the subject's skin tone and the desired character mood. Warm tones for approachable/gentle characters, cooler tones for mysterious/intense personalities. Colors should be vibrant but natural, avoiding oversaturation.
- **Background Treatment**: Soft, blurred background that complements the character theme without distracting. Can be a subtle environment (studio backdrop, abstract texture, or blurred location) that supports the narrative. Background should have depth but remain secondary to the subject.

**TECHNICAL QUALITY PARAMETERS**
- High resolution, 4K, detailed
- Sharp focus on face, especially eyes and key facial features
- Professional quality portrait photography standards
- Aspect ratio: 4:5 vertical portrait format (or 1:1 for square, depending on preference)
- Natural skin texture preserved with pores and details visible
- No artificial smoothing or plastic-looking skin

**NEGATIVE PROMPT GUIDANCE**
Avoid: distorted facial features, unrealistic proportions, blurry face, loss of likeness, unnatural skin smoothing, plastic appearance, mismatched lighting, garish colors, distracting background elements, uncanny valley effect, exaggerated expressions, artificial-looking enhancements

**ADDITIONAL GUIDANCE FOR USERS**
- For best results, use a well-lit, clear photo of the face

- You can request specific lighting mood or color tone preferences
- The prompt works best with front-facing or slightly angled portraits
