A cinematic portrait features a man seated in a dark leather armchair, facing forward. He wears a fitted white shirt, slightly unbuttoned at the top, with one hand resting on the armrest and the other thoughtfully placed under his chin. Warm, dramatic lighting casts golden-orange tones on one side of his face and body, creating deep shadows on the other. The minimalist, dark background enhances the contrast, focusing attention on the subject. The mood conveys elegance, confidence, and introspection. Styled as a cinematic portrait with chiaroscuro and dramatic lighting, the composition reflects editorial photography with 8k quality, ultra-detailed, realistic textures, using the uploaded photo to capture the subject's face and identity.

$Hyperrealistic 8K black and white cinematic portrait of a young man with natural freckles and textured skin, captured with a Dutch tilt camera angle. The composition is dynamic and diagonal, the subject framed from the shoulders up, his head slightly tilted in the opposite direction, enhancing the sense of imbalance and tension. Bright sunlight pours through a textured surface, breaking into glowing wavy lines that sweep diagonally across his face and body. The beams ripple like underwater reflections, refracting into surreal, fluid patterns. Shadows remain in soft mid-gray tones, giving the portrait a smooth tonal balance, while the luminous streaks appear vivid and sharp. dominating the scene. His skin is shown with lifelike detail — visible pores, faint stubble, freckles, and subtle imperfections - catching the light in natural highlights. The wavy rays sculpt his cheekbones, lips, and jawline, creating depth and surreal contrast. The background fades into smoky gray gradients with faint haze that makes the luminous streaks expand softly into the darkness. Fine cinematic grain overlays the frame, adding texture and analog realism. The overall mood is dramatic, surreal, and emotional. Strictly do not change the face$

A man (the face according to the reference photo is 100% similar) who is floating in a modern minimalist style room. He is wearing a stylish black blazer, gray pants, and white sneakers. The man seemed to lean back in the air as if sitting on an invisible chair - one leg bent and the other leg stretched forward. He was typing on a laptop that was also floating, with a focused facial expression.

Around it, floating objects such as books, paper, cameras, notebooks, glasses, and headphones gently orbit, creating a surreal effect as if without gravity.

Lighting: soft natural side light, shallow depth of field, realistic shadows, and cinematic color gradations that highlight a futuristic and dreamy atmosphere.

Style: Ultra-realistic, cinematic, modern, surreal

Camera Settings: Eye-level shot, 50mm prime lens, shallow depth of field, soft natural side light

Mood: Focused, creative, dreamy

Environment: Minimalist indoor workspace with floating objects and clean smooth background. Don't change the face.

Hyper-realistic cinematic fashion photoshoot of a the person in photo. He has a refined slim face with a lean, youthful, and elegant physique. Seated casually on a deep white bean bag, he wears bold all-dark chocolate oversized streetwear: a stylish trench coat over a clean white inner t-shirt, wide white pants, chunky sneakers, and a silver watch. The background is minimal with an aesthetic grey tone. The atmosphere reflects powerful drip vibes, like an Adidas campaign editorial, with dramatic studio lighting and a modern urban touch. Keep his face 100% accurate and realistic.

Hyper-realistic portrait of a person sitting on light wooden floor near a large open window, playing guitar in soft dawn light. The vintage-inspired room has worn cream walls, hanging plants, and ceramic pots casting organic shadows. A floor mirror reflects the scene — the guitar, a softly lit face, and golden light streaming in. Everyday objects fill the space: stacked books, loose music sheets, an old camera, a taped Polaroid, a steaming coffee cup, and a frosted glass lamp glowing amber. Dust sparkles in the sunbeams as warm morning light blends with a cool blue rim light for cinematic depth. Soft vintage bloom, analog 35mm texture, and subtle halos enhance the poetic realism. The person wears natural linen and cotton in faded neutral tones, relaxed and introspective. Side composition, shallow depth of field, 50mm f/1.4 look, and a soft vintage palette of sand, pale blue, and olive green. Negative prompt: CGI, overexposure, harsh shadows, skin smoothing, modern outfits, clutter-free sterile backgrounds, digital filters, or artificial reflections.

Ultra-realistic cinematic street photography with AI
This Nano Banana Pro prompt captures emotional isolation in a moving crowd motion-blur chaos, a sharp, human subject, cinematic color grading.

Use the uploaded image as the identity reference.

Identity (Strict – No Compromise)
Preserve the uploaded person’s 100% facial identity: facial structure, proportions, skin texture, hairline, age, and natural expression.
Do not morph, beautify, feminize, masculinize, or stylize the face.
Gender, body type, and appearance must remain exactly as in the reference image.
Core Concept (STYLE LOCKED)
Create a hyper-realistic optical illusion photograph where the person appears to be emerging out of a freshly developed instant photo (Polaroid-style) placed on a small table or flat surface.
Inside the instant photo: the person’s full body or lower body is visible.
Outside the photo: the person’s upper body and head emerge into real space, casting a realistic shadow onto the surface.
The transition between print and reality must feel physically believable.
Pose & Interaction (Adaptive)
The emerging pose should feel natural and spontaneous, adapted to the uploaded person’s gender and body language.
One hand or upper-body gesture may extend slightly forward to enhance depth.
Expression should feel lively and engaging, but must adapt naturally to the person’s face (no forced kiss, pout, or flirt unless it already fits).
Hair & Styling
Preserve original hair length, texture, and direction.
Add only subtle natural movement (air or motion), never restyling.
Clothing Logic (IMPORTANT – Gender Safe)
Preserve the uploaded person’s clothing if visible.
If parts of the outfit are not visible, infer neutral, realistic, context-appropriate fashion that fits the person’s gender presentation naturally.
Clothing inside the instant photo must logically match the person emerging from it.
No skirts, dresses, or gender-locked items unless already implied by the reference image.
Instant Photo Details
The instant photo should look glossy and real, with:
Subtle fingerprints
Micro scratches
Natural paper texture
Any printed text on the photo frame must be readable and not mirrored.
If handwritten annotations are present, they must be:
Legible
Correctly oriented
Clearly pointing to outfit elements inside the photo
Environment & Lighting
Use soft natural daylight or diffused light.
Shadows must match direction and intensity across:
The real subject
The instant photo
The table or surface
Maintain realistic depth and scale.
Camera & Composition
Forced-perspective realism
Slight top-down or intimate POV angle
Shallow depth of field to emphasize realism
Preserve original aspect ratio unless explicitly changed
Output Quality
Ultra-photorealistic
High resolution
Natural skin and fabric textures
No text overlays, no watermarks
Absolute Rules
No gender forcing
No identity change
No pose copying from a specific gender
No outfit hallucination
No surreal distortion beyond the illusion

"Create a high-detail watercolor and ink portrait of the exact same face (100% match). Preserve the facial features precisely. The artwork should blend soft flowing watercolor washes in pastel blues and warm pinks with expressive black ink linework defining contours and hair strands. The colors should bleed naturally into each other with visible paper texture and delicate brush splatter. Use light transparency layers to convey emotion, depth, and a sense of calm movement. Place the subject in front of a textured wall (e.g., brick, stucco, or painted surface) instead of a plain background, keeping the wall subtle so it complements the portrait without distracting. Maintain a soft, artistic feel with the wall integrated naturally behind the figure."
