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 applying the graduation transformation. Keep the original facial identity completely intact and recognizable.

TRANSFORMATION DESCRIPTION: Transform the person into a graduation ceremony portrait. Dress them in a formal academic cap and gown in traditional dark colors (black or deep navy). The graduation cap (mortarboard) should be positioned naturally on their head with the tassel hanging correctly to one side. Add a graduation sash or stole if appropriate for their institution colors. The overall look should be dignified, celebratory, and appropriate for graduation photos.

STYLE AND AESTHETIC PARAMETERS:
- Photorealistic style with professional portrait quality
- Studio or graduation ceremony lighting - soft, flattering illumination with subtle rim lighting
- Warm, celebratory color palette with academic tones (deep blacks, rich burgundy or gold accents)
- Professional background: either clean solid color (light gray or soft white) or blurred graduation ceremony setting
- Natural, confident expression appropriate for a graduation portrait
- High attention to fabric texture of the academic gown
- The graduation cap should look properly fitted and realistic

TECHNICAL QUALITY PARAMETERS:
- High resolution, 4K, detailed
- Sharp focus on face and graduation attire
- Professional quality portrait photography
- Aspect ratio: 4:3 or 3:4 (portrait orientation recommended)
- Natural skin texture preserved
- Crisp details on academic regalia

NEGATIVE PROMPT GUIDANCE: Avoid: distorted facial features, unrealistic proportions, blurry face, loss of likeness, poorly rendered clothing, unnatural cap positioning, mismatched lighting on face and clothing, artificial-looking fabric, incorrect academic regalia proportions, pixelation around edges
