Use the face in the reference photo to create a photorealistic image with strict identity preservation. Preserve the subject’s exact facial features and proportions, along with true-to-life skin texture.

SKIN & TEXTURE: Show natural, healthy, realistic human skin with visible pores, fine texture, subtle imperfections, believable tonal variation, and authentic highlights and shadows. Maintain realistic texture on the face, neck, ears, arms, and all exposed skin. Use a natural, healthy skin tone and realistic sheen. Avoid a plastic or waxy appearance, excessive smoothing, artificial glow, and beauty filters.

SUBJECT & BODY: Depict a young Asian man with an athletic, lean, fit physique, naturally defined shoulders, proportionate arms, a slim waist, and balanced proportions. Use subtle, realistic muscle definition without exaggerated bulk. Preserve the exact facial identity from the reference photo.

HAIR: Short black hair with a naturally voluminous, softly textured top and gently curved strands across the forehead. Keep the sides neat and the texture slightly tousled, for a youthful, effortless appearance. No comma hairstyle.

SCENE: Place him sitting inside a cozy modern café or restaurant with black leather booth seating, dark wooden ceiling panels, large windows, and lush green foliage visible outside. Include a tiled café table and additional black seating in the background. Create a calm daytime atmosphere with natural sunlight entering through the windows.

POSE & COMPOSITION: Seat the subject casually on a black leather booth, with his torso slightly angled toward the camera. Keep his upper body relaxed, shoulders naturally lowered, and head turned slightly to his left as he looks off-camera. Both hands rest loosely together over his lap, fingers relaxed and elbows naturally bent. Give him a gentle, natural body curve; avoid a stiff or overly posed posture. Frame from head to upper thighs, with the subject occupying approximately 65% of the frame.

OUTFIT: Dress him in a plain off-white, short-sleeved polo shirt with a soft collar, short button placket, and subtle vertical ribbed fabric texture. The shirt should fit naturally across the shoulders and chest without being excessively tight. Add dark brown relaxed-fit trousers with realistic fabric folds. Keep accessories minimal and styling understated and clean.

EXPRESSION & GAZE: Give him a calm, composed expression with relaxed lips and a subtle, almost neutral smile. His eyes glance naturally to the side, as if noticing something outside the frame. Include realistic eye reflections, relaxed eyebrows, and subtle facial micro-expressions.

LIGHTING: Use soft natural daylight entering through the large windows to gently illuminate the face and arms. Keep highlights balanced, shadows soft, skin tones realistic, and reflections on the black leather seating subtle. Preserve the natural contrast between the bright window area and the darker interior.

CAMERA: Use a vertical 9:16 portrait, medium-full shot, and eye-level perspective. The image should resemble realistic smartphone photography, with a 35mm-equivalent lens, natural depth of field, sharp facial details, subtle photographic grain, and an authentic candid composition.

STYLE: Use ultra-photorealistic human photography, natural everyday realism, authentic skin texture, realistic anatomy, detailed fabric, soft daylight, understated lifestyle editorial styling, and an unposed candid snapshot aesthetic.

NEGATIVE PROMPT: Anime, illustration, cartoon, CGI, plastic skin, waxy face, excessive smoothing, artificial glow, exaggerated muscles, bodybuilder physique, overly broad shoulders, distorted anatomy, unnatural hands, extra fingers, stiff posture, forced smile, incorrect facial identity, overexposed skin, excessive HDR, oversaturated colors, blurry face, low resolution, watermark, text overlay, social media interface.
