Convert this reference photo into a papercraft sculpture scene:
${reference-photo}
Recreate the person as a folded-paper sculpture with a geometric, faceted appearance. Construct every element—including the person, clothing, hair, and accessories—from folded paper, with visible creases, crisp edges, and angular planes that create a handcrafted papercraft quality.
Show subtle paper texture and fold lines. Build each form from flat geometric shapes joined at sharp creases, creating a stylized, low-poly paper look. Delicate painted details may appear on the paper, such as soft blush on the cheeks or small painted accents, but the construction must remain clearly paper-based.
Preserve the person's recognizable features, hairstyle, pose, clothing style, and key accessories from the reference photo, reinterpreting everything through the folded-paper aesthetic.
Background: clean white, minimal, and uncluttered. Add a few small decorative paper elements around the subject, such as butterflies, stars, or simple paper shapes, to enhance the handmade atmosphere.
Lighting: soft and even, highlighting paper textures, creases, and folds. Use gentle shadows to emphasize the geometric facets and give the sculpture realistic dimension.
Composition: full-body or three-quarter view, subject centered, clean and balanced.
Style: papercraft sculpture, folded-paper art, geometric faceted construction, handmade quality, minimalist and elegant.
Avoid photorealistic rendering, smooth digital gradients, 3D CGI, plastic or glossy textures, anime, cartoon styling, realistic fabric, soft organic curves, busy backgrounds, harsh shadows, text, logos, and watermarks.
