Candid_portrait (image)

Edit the image using the reference photo, without changing the subject’s original facial details. Accurately preserve her identity, eye shape, eyebrows, nose, lips, jaw, skin tone, and facial proportions.

**Subject and hair:** A candid portrait of a young adult woman with thick, naturally wavy, black-brown hair reaching her waist. Her hair is slightly tousled by the wind, with a few strands naturally falling across her cheek and nose for an unposed, spontaneous appearance. Minimal makeup; natural skin with fine visible pores, softly flushed cheeks, and lightly glossy nude-pink lips.

**Pose and expression:** Her body is turned about 45 degrees to the side. She looks back over her shoulder, gazing to the right with a calm, slightly curious candid expression and naturally parted lips. Both hands hold an old silver compact digital camera in front of her waist, with its strap hanging loose. Keep her shoulders relaxed and posture natural, not stiff or model-like.

**Outfit and accessories:** A fitted vintage-style white T-shirt with a brown collar and sleeve edges, featuring a small retro graphic on the chest. A beige high-waisted cargo mini skirt with large front and side pockets. A small metallic-silver shoulder bag with a thin strap, worn on her right shoulder.

**Setting and composition:** An urban riverside in the late afternoon, with distant skyscrapers, water with a small boat, a concrete railing along the promenade, and a few passersby in the background. Keep the background slightly blurred while retaining visible environmental detail. Use vertical framing from head to mid-thigh, with the camera at chest height and a spontaneous photographic perspective. Make the composition slightly asymmetrical, like a travel photo accidentally taken by a friend.

**Lighting and color grading:** Match the reference photo’s tone: warm vintage film, muted pastel colors, a slight cool cyan tint in the shadows, pale cream highlights, natural peach-toned skin, low contrast, slightly lifted blacks, a faded-film effect, fine analog grain, and the texture of an early-2000s digital photo. Use soft late-afternoon light with a subtle direct on-camera flash, making the face slightly brighter than the background while keeping skin detail realistic. Create a nostalgic Y2K summer-snapshot atmosphere.

**Quality and format:** Ultra-photorealistic, authentic candid photography, natural body proportions, realistic individual hair strands, subtle motion in loose hair, imperfect spontaneous composition, vintage compact digital-camera aesthetic, soft focus, fine film grain, high detail, 9:16 aspect ratio.

**Negative prompt:** Changed face, different identity, plastic skin, excessive beauty filters, heavy makeup, overly neat hair, stiff pose, looking directly at the camera, unnatural anatomy, extra fingers, deformed hands, distorted accessories, oversaturated colors, excessive contrast, HDR, studio lighting, CGI, 3D render, illustration, cartoon, excessive AI effects, oversharpening, or an overly sharp background.
