Prompt
Use my uploaded image as a STRICT facial reference with absolute identity preservation. Maintain my exact facial structure, eyes, nose, lips, hairstyle, skin tone, facial proportions, and recognizable identity. No facial drift, no beautification, no reinterpretation. Create an ultra-realistic cinematic street photography portrait on a [busy city street] with natural depth of field and soft background blur. I am standing confidently in the center of the frame wearing an [oversized black hoodie], [relaxed cargo pants], and casual streetwear. My expression is playful, slightly mischievous, and authentic, as if I am proudly showing my creative side. I am holding a large white poster board in front of me. Important: The poster contains ONLY ONE hand-drawn sketch illustration of me, not multiple versions. The sketch should be: black-and-white pencil drawing highly detailed expressive line art realistic facial resemblance artist sketchbook style clean white background confident creator energy subtle shading hand-drawn strokes visible At the bottom of the sketch write: [YOUR NAME] Around the sketch add only a few minimal doodles: tiny stars small hearts paper airplane light sketch arrows subtle creative marks Keep the poster simple and powerful. Mood: creative, inspiring, authentic, artistic, creator movement campaign, documentary-style photography. Style: ultra-realistic street portrait, shallow depth of field, natural lighting, premium editorial photography, magazine-quality image, cinematic storytelling, Pinterest aesthetic, creator-brand campaign, emotional and relatable, 8K masterpiece, professional photography. Composition: The real me and the sketch version of me should create a strong visual contrast between the artist and the art, with the single sketch as the clear focal point.

Style Notes

Photo
Asks the model for photorealistic output — natural lighting, believable skin and materials, camera-like depth of field — rather than illustration or 3D looks.
Poster
Single-image layout designed to be read at a glance: dominant visual, title-friendly composition, high contrast for print or thumbnail.
Cinematic
Film-style rendering — widescreen framing, dramatic lighting contrast, graded colors (often teal-orange), and a sense of narrative in the scene.
Hero Portrait
A single dominant subject shot like a key visual — tight framing, strong eye contact or pose, background simplified so the character carries the image.
Soft Light
Diffused, low-contrast lighting — gentle shadows and flattering skin tones, like window light or an overcast day.
Social Media Post
Composition and aspect ratio tuned for feeds (Instagram, X, Xiaohongshu): bold focal subject, room for overlay text, colors that survive small screens.
Marketing Campaign
Ad-ready imagery: clear product or message hierarchy, space reserved for copy and logos, and a polished commercial finish.
