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 into a Japanese minimalist aesthetic.

TRANSFORMATION DESCRIPTION:
Transform the photo into a sophisticated Japanese minimalist (Japandi) style portrait. The subject should be integrated into a clean, serene environment with a muted, natural color palette. The composition should emphasize negative space, clean lines, and a sense of calm. The person's presence should feel organic and harmonious within the minimalist setting, not forced or out of place.

STYLE AND AESTHETIC PARAMETERS:
- Art Style: Photorealistic with artistic, cinematic quality. Subtle film grain or matte finish to enhance the organic feel.
- Lighting: Soft, diffused natural lighting. Gentle shadows with low contrast. Consider a single soft light source creating subtle dimensionality. Avoid harsh highlights or deep blacks.
- Color Palette: Muted, desaturated tones. Earthy colors: warm beiges, soft greys, muted greens, off-whites. Skin tones should remain natural but slightly desaturated to match the overall palette. No vibrant or saturated colors.
- Composition: Clean, balanced composition with ample negative space. Use principles of wabi-sabi (beauty in imperfection and simplicity). Subject positioned thoughtfully within the frame, often off-center following rule of thirds.
- Background: Minimalist interior (Japanese-style room with tatami, shoji screens, or modern minimalist space) OR natural setting (bamboo forest, zen garden, misty landscape) with clean lines. Background should be blurred or softly defined to keep focus on the person while maintaining the minimalist atmosphere.
- Texture: Natural textures visible - wood grain, fabric weave, paper texture. Subtle and not overpowering.

TECHNICAL QUALITY PARAMETERS:
- High resolution, 4K, detailed
- Sharp focus on face and eyes while maintaining artistic softness in the overall image
- Professional quality portrait photography
- Aspect ratio: 4:5 or 3:4 (vertical portrait orientation recommended)
- Natural skin texture preserved with subtle smoothing
- Clean edges and precise masking around the subject

NEGATIVE PROMPT GUIDANCE:
Avoid: distorted facial features, unrealistic proportions, blurry face, loss of likeness, oversaturated colors, vibrant hues, harsh lighting, cluttered backgrounds, busy patterns, neon colors, digital artifacts, cartoonish style, anime style, excessive makeup, heavy filters, unnatural skin smoothing that removes texture

Additional notes for best results:
- The prompt works best when the original photo has good lighting and clear facial features
- For specific background preferences (e.g., "standing in a zen garden" or "sitting in a minimalist room with shoji screens"), add them to the {additional_context} section
- If you want to emphasize specific clothing styles (simple linen, neutral colors), mention in {additional_context}
- The transformation preserves your identity while creating an entirely new atmospheric portrait
