Use the uploaded office photograph as the scene reference and the uploaded portrait only as the identity reference for the person. Preserve the person’s recognizable facial identity, facial proportions, eye shape, nose, lips, eyebrows, skin tone, hairstyle, hair color, and approximate age.

Do not paste or composite the person into the scene. Recreate them naturally inside the office as if they were physically photographed there at the same moment.

Create a realistic early-2000s administrative office photograph based on the reference image.

The person is seated naturally in a large black leather office chair on the right side of the frame, behind a warm orange-brown wooden desk. The chair, body, and desk must share the same perspective and scale. Position the person’s hips and lower torso properly inside the chair, with their back resting naturally against the backrest. Place their legs under or beside the desk without awkward cropping.

Show the person from approximately mid-thigh upward, with their body turned slightly toward the camera. One forearm rests naturally on the desk surface, with realistic contact, pressure, and shadow. The other arm rests comfortably near the lap or chair armrest. Hands must have natural proportions and correct anatomy.

Dress the person in a bright royal-blue formal business suit, adapted naturally to their body shape. The suit must follow the seated posture, with realistic folds, compression around the waist and elbows, and natural fabric shadows. Avoid an oversized head, narrow shoulders, or a floating torso.

Match the office lighting: soft daylight coming through the large window with vertical blinds behind the desk, combined with weak direct camera flash from the front. The person must receive the same warm color cast, contrast, softness, and shadow direction as the desk, chair, and walls.

Add subtle contact shadows beneath the arms, behind the body, around the chair, and under the desk. Blend the edges of the person naturally with the background, without halos, cutout edges, artificial blur, or mismatched sharpness.

The office is compact and slightly old-fashioned. On the desk are scattered white papers, a closed green folder, a pen holder, and office stationery. Behind the desk are two bulky beige CRT computer monitors, an old keyboard, document trays, office equipment, and several green potted plants.

On the left is a wooden cabinet with a white water dispenser and a large blue water bottle. Behind the person is a wide window covered with vertical white blinds, with a softly visible cityscape outside.

Use a straight-on, eye-level camera angle and a medium-wide 4:3 composition, with framing similar to the reference. Make it look like an authentic amateur digital photo from the late 1990s or early 2000s: slightly warm and oversaturated colors, modest dynamic range, mild softness, subtle digital noise, and realistic skin texture.

The final result must look like one single original photograph taken in this office, not a modern portrait placed over a background.

Avoid: pasted person, floating body, oversized head, mismatched perspective, studio portrait lighting, a sharp modern face against a soft background, incorrect chair contact, missing shadows, cutout edges, distorted hands, unrealistic body proportions, cinematic lighting, or shallow depth of field.
