Create a photo that looks like an authentic photograph taken with a premium smartphone camera, not an AI-generated image. Use the reference photo as the primary guide for the pose, composition, clothing, accessories, and atmosphere. Preserve the real facial identity from the reference photo if it depicts a person.

A young woman sits casually on the sand at a tropical beach in the late afternoon. Her black hair is styled in two loose braids, with a few strands falling naturally around her face. She wears maroon-framed sunglasses on top of her head, long earrings with red and blue decorations, a red lace top with turquoise-blue straps, and a long, lightweight white skirt. A light-blue crocheted bag decorated with blue flowers hangs from her shoulder.

She sits with both knees bent and held close together, her body leaning slightly forward. Her arms hang relaxed in front of her knees, and her hands rest naturally one over the other. Her head is tilted slightly as she looks at the camera with a calm expression and a spontaneous, subtle smile—not an overly perfect pose.

The background is a real beach with coconut trees, naturally textured sand, a pink beach umbrella, lounge chairs, and the sea faintly visible in the distance. The late-afternoon sky is soft blue with natural clouds. Sunlight falls unevenly across her face and clothes, as in an ordinary vacation photo, with plausible shadows and natural-looking skin tones.

Use a candid vacation-photography style and realistic photography without excessive retouching. Preserve natural skin texture and fine pores, slightly wind-tousled hair, realistic fabric detail, irregular folds in the skirt, and natural anatomy and hand positions. Use natural colors, realistic lighting, a smartphone-camera perspective, slight photographic imperfections, and sharp but not excessive detail. Do not use digital beauty effects.

Avoid a doll-like face, poreless porcelain skin, oversized eyes, an overly symmetrical face, CGI effects, studio lighting, oversaturated colors, artificial blur, unrealistic body shape, deformed fingers, extra hands, excessive detail, beauty filters, and the characteristic appearance of AI-generated imagery.

Use a vertical 3:4 aspect ratio. The final image must look like a real vacation photo taken by a human photographer.
