Create an image using the uploaded person's photograph as the primary facial identity reference.

IDENTITY AND FACIAL PRESERVATION:
Preserve the person's exact recognizable facial identity, natural skin tone, apparent age, facial proportions, eye shape and color, eyebrows, nose, lips, cheekbones, jawline, hairline, hairstyle, hair color, and distinctive characteristics. Maintain authentic skin pores, fine lines, natural facial textures, and realistic anatomy. Do not de-age, excessively beautify, reshape, or replace the person's face. Adapt clothing and presentation naturally to any gender. If a cat photograph is also provided, faithfully preserve the cat's breed, fur colors, markings, eyes, ears, whiskers, and distinctive features. Otherwise, include a beautiful brown-and-black striped domestic tabby cat with expressive green eyes.

STYLE AND ATMOSPHERE:
Create an extraordinarily detailed, ultra-photorealistic cinematic lifestyle portrait inspired by intimate human-and-pet photography, timeless fine-art portraiture, rustic editorial photography, and warm natural-light storytelling. Capture an emotionally touching moment of quiet companionship between a person and their affectionate cat. The atmosphere should be peaceful, intimate, cozy, nostalgic, heartwarming, and gently cinematic, emphasizing the beauty of an ordinary affectionate moment.

COMPOSITION AND POSING:
Use a vertical 4:5 portrait composition. Photograph the person from approximately the upper chest upward, positioned slightly right of center. Capture a natural three-quarter facial angle, with the head gently turned toward the right side of the frame and the eyes looking softly downward. The expression should be peaceful, thoughtful, and subtly smiling.

Place a beautiful striped tabby cat comfortably across the person's left shoulder in the lower-left foreground. The cat's head should appear beside the person's cheek, looking attentively toward the right with expressive green eyes. Its front paws should rest naturally over the shoulder, while its body curves behind the person's neck. Its long striped tail should rise dramatically into the upper-left background, creating an elegant curved silhouette.

The person gently raises one hand beneath the chin, with fingertips resting naturally near the cat's front paws to suggest affectionate interaction. Preserve realistic hand anatomy, natural finger positioning, and believable physical contact.

Keep the person's face and the cat's face as the two dominant focal points, with the cat slightly closer to the camera. Maintain intimate shoulder-level framing, natural overlapping silhouettes, and harmonious visual balance.

WARDROBE AND HAIR:
Dress the person in a simple, loose-fitting, pale butter-yellow or warm ivory linen shirt with a relaxed neckline. Reproduce finely detailed linen fibers, subtle wrinkles, stitching, soft fabric folds, and natural textile texture.

Preserve the person's original hairstyle and hair color while allowing natural loose strands and realistic hair movement. Where appropriate, style longer hair in a casually gathered, slightly messy updo with delicate flyaway strands catching the warm backlight.

Avoid excessive jewelry, distracting accessories, heavy makeup, or artificial glamour.

LIGHTING AND COLOR:
Recreate dramatic yet beautifully soft chiaroscuro lighting using warm, directional late-afternoon sunlight entering from behind and camera-right.

Create luminous amber-gold rim lighting around the person's hair, forehead, cheek, and shoulder, producing delicate glowing edges around individual hair strands.

Use soft reflected illumination to reveal facial features, natural skin texture, the cat's green eyes, and intricate striped fur. Maintain deep, rich shadows on the opposite side without losing important detail.

Use a sophisticated cinematic color palette of golden amber, warm honey, soft ivory, muted ochre, rich chocolate brown, charcoal black, and naturally warm skin tones.

Preserve realistic highlight roll-off, smooth shadow transitions, subdued background contrast, and the atmospheric warmth of authentic natural-window-light photography.

BACKGROUND AND ENVIRONMENT:
Place the subjects inside a softly illuminated rustic interior with dark wooden furnishings, subtle architectural textures, and an understated vintage atmosphere.

Keep the background exceptionally soft and unobtrusive, showing only vague silhouettes of wooden surfaces and warm interior details. Keep the cat's upright tail recognizable against the dark upper-left background.

Create a naturally shallow depth of field with smooth, creamy background bokeh. Avoid recognizable modern objects, clutter, distracting decorations, or artificial studio backdrops.

CAMERA AND PHOTOGRAPHIC SETTINGS:
Use a professional full-frame mirrorless camera, an 85mm portrait prime lens, approximately f/1.8 aperture, 1/250-second shutter speed, ISO 400, and natural white balance around 4200K.

Position the eye-level camera slightly to the subject's left. Use an intimate close-up perspective, natural portrait compression, minimal optical distortion, and precise framing.

Focus critically on the person's nearest visible eye and the cat's eyes, retaining exceptionally sharp facial detail while allowing the shoulders, background, and tail to transition gradually into soft focus.

Simulate professional RAW photography with lifelike dynamic range, delicate filmic contrast, natural color grading, and subtle photographic grain.

ULTRA-PHOTOREALISTIC DETAIL:
Render extraordinarily realistic human skin pores, fine facial hairs, eyelashes, eyebrows, delicate expression lines, natural lip texture, and accurate skin translucency.

Reproduce individually distinguishable cat hairs, detailed tabby markings, fine whiskers, reflective green irises, realistic ear texture, and soft dimensional fur.

Maintain anatomically correct hands, paws, shoulders, and facial proportions, with believable contact between the person and the cat.

Avoid plastic skin, excessive smoothing, artificial sharpening, distorted anatomy, extra limbs, unnatural fur patterns, exaggerated facial expressions, watermarks, or text.

FINAL IMAGE QUALITY:
Create a breathtakingly natural, emotionally engaging, museum-quality photographic portrait that feels like a genuine candid moment captured by an exceptionally skilled professional photographer.

Use a vertical portrait composition with full-frame height emphasis and a cinematic poster layout. -- ar 4:5
