Ai Photo Prompt No. 1

Use the uploaded image as the ONLY facial identity source. Face must remain 100% identical with zero changes. Do not modify eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, jawline, beard, hairstyle, or skin tone. Preserve natural skin texture, pores, and real human imperfections. No beautification, no smoothing, no AI face generation.

STRICT MATCH REQUIREMENT:
Recreate the EXACT same scene, pose, camera angle, composition, outfit, and environment as reference. The subject must sit in the same relaxed position on a rooftop lounge, leaning slightly back with one hand resting and one leg bent. Maintain exact body proportions and framing. No scaling issues, no stretching, no cropping errors.

EXPRESSION CHANGE ONLY:
Keep everything identical, but slightly change facial expression to a subtle sad mood — soft eyes, slightly lowered eyelids, neutral lips (no smile), emotional cinematic look. Do NOT exaggerate.

SCENE:
Night rooftop luxury setting with glowing city lights, mountains and clouds in the background. White cushions, candles and lanterns around, same placement and perspective.

LIGHTING:
Cinematic soft lighting — warm candle light + cool city ambient light. Realistic shadows, balanced HDR, no overexposure.

16:9 aspect ratio (1920×1080), DSLR cinematic shot, shallow depth of field, background bokeh, sharp focus on face.
