Copy the exact prompt behind Nostalgic Cafe Identity Reference Portrait, or open it in the studio and make it yours.
Use my uploaded portrait only as the identity reference for facial features, face shape, hairstyle, hair color, skin tone, and real-person presence. Do not copy any other person’s face or identity. Recreate the uploaded person in a realistic cinematic cafe portrait with the same atmosphere, pose, outfit, lighting, and composition described below. A {argument name="subject" default="young person"} is sitting alone by a wooden table inside a {argument name="setting" default="quiet warm cafe"}, facing the camera with a calm, slightly serious natural expression. Full-body vertical composition, seated on a wooden chair, one arm resting naturally on the table, the other hand relaxed near the lap. Legs are casually crossed or angled forward in a relaxed sitting posture. Outfit: {argument name="outfit" default="soft oversized white knitted sweater, white collared shirt underneath, dark striped school-style tie, loose straight blue jeans, brown leather lace-up shoes"}. The clothing should look realistic, with natural fabric texture, soft knit details, believable folds, and no exaggerated fashion styling. Scene: cozy vintage cafe interior with wooden tables and chairs, warm dark background, soft coffee bar area in the distance, window on the left side with bamboo or woven blinds. Strong afternoon sunlight passes through the blinds, creating beautiful tree-shadow patterns and striped light on the wall, table, clothes, floor, and face. Warm golden natural light, deep soft shadows, quiet nostalgic mood. Camera style: realistic 35mm film photography, vertical 9:16 composition, natural indoor sunlight, slightly soft focus, gentle film grain, warm color grading, realistic skin texture, real hair detail, natural body proportions, authentic candid portrait feeling. Keep the uploaded person highly recognizable, but do not make the face look pasted, plastic, doll-like, or over-smoothed. No watermark, no logo, no text, no Chinese characters. Negative Prompt: watermark, logo, text, Chinese characters, anime, cartoon, CGI, plastic skin, doll-like face, over-smoothed skin, fake face, face swap look, distorted facial features, bad anatomy, extra fingers, broken hands, unnatural arms, stiff pose, unrealistic body proportions, glossy AI skin, harsh makeup, low quality, blurry face, overexposed face, messy background, duplicate person, brand logo, readable text.
