Cinematic Black & White Cigarette Portrait - Copy Paste AI Prompt
Use the uploaded reference photo as the PRIMARY IDENTITY REFERENCE with STRICT IDENTITY LOCK.
Preserve the exact identity of the person in the uploaded reference image. Maintain their facial structure, facial proportions, eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, jawline, cheekbones, ears, skin tone translated naturally into monochrome, hairline, hairstyle characteristics, age appearance, natural facial asymmetry, and all distinctive facial features.
Do not beautify, redesign, replace, reshape, feminize, masculinize, or otherwise alter the person's face. Do not turn the person into a generic fashion model. Preserve their real facial proportions and recognizable identity.
Recreate the following photograph around that identity:
Create an extremely realistic black-and-white fine-art portrait photograph with the exact intimate, quiet, cinematic mood of a classic analog portrait.
POSE AND BODY POSITION:
The subject is shown from approximately the lower chest/shoulders upward in a tight vertical portrait.
The body is positioned slightly at an angle rather than perfectly square to the camera.
The subject's head is turned subtly toward the camera, with the face occupying the central-upper portion of the frame.
One arm is raised vertically in front of the body.
The hand is positioned naturally in front of the mouth, with the fingers gently curled.
A cigarette is held delicately between the fingers directly in front of the lips.
The hand should partially overlap the lower face without completely obscuring the mouth.
The wrist and forearm extend downward toward the lower portion of the frame.
The pose should feel completely natural and relaxed, as though the photograph captured a quiet moment rather than a deliberately constructed fashion pose.
EXPRESSION:
Calm, quiet, introspective expression.
Direct gaze toward the camera.
Relaxed eyelids.
Neutral mouth.
No smile.
No exaggerated sadness.
The expression should feel emotionally restrained and slightly mysterious.
The eyes are the primary emotional focal point.
HAIR:
Preserve the person's actual hairstyle and hairline from the identity reference.
Allow the hair to naturally fall forward across part of the forehead and partially overlap one eye.
Create soft, voluminous, slightly messy strands around the sides and top of the head.
Hair should have realistic individual strands and natural movement.
Do not redesign the hairstyle.
CLOTHING:
Dress the subject in a simple dark black or charcoal high-neck knitted sweater/turtleneck.
The sweater should have a thick, tactile knitted texture with subtle visible fibers.
Use a relaxed, slightly oversized silhouette.
The clothing should blend into the dark lower portion of the image.
No logos.
No graphics.
No jewelry unless naturally present in the identity reference.
CAMERA AND FRAMING:
Vertical portrait photograph.
Approximately 4:5 or 3:4 aspect ratio.
Extremely intimate medium close-up.
The head and upper torso occupy almost the entire frame.
Leave a small amount of negative space above the hair.
The shoulders extend naturally toward the lower edges of the frame.
Camera positioned approximately at eye level.
Use an approximately 85mm portrait lens aesthetic.
Natural optical compression.
Shallow depth of field.
The face and eyes are sharply focused while the background gradually falls into soft blur.
Do not use exaggerated artificial bokeh.
LIGHTING:
Soft, diffused frontal or slightly side-front light.
The face is gently illuminated without harsh shadows.
Use subtle tonal modeling around the cheekbones, nose, eyes, lips, and jaw.
The raised hand should receive soft light and remain clearly visible against the darker clothing.
Create delicate highlights along the forehead, nose bridge, cheekbones, lips, fingers, and hair.
Keep the shadows deep but soft.
No dramatic studio spotlight.
No rim lighting.
No colored lighting.
No hard flash.
BACKGROUND:
A dark, soft-focus indoor background.
Use a neutral charcoal-gray to black background with subtle vertical tonal variations and vague out-of-focus shapes.
The background should have a slightly textured, atmospheric appearance rather than being a completely flat black studio backdrop.
Keep all background details heavily blurred and subordinate to the subject.
No recognizable location.
No furniture or distracting objects.
BLACK-AND-WHITE TREATMENT:
STRICTLY monochrome.
No color anywhere.
Use a rich grayscale range:
deep blacks,
charcoal shadows,
medium gray,
soft gray,
bright silver-gray highlights,
natural near-white skin highlights.
Preserve subtle tonal differences within the skin, hair, sweater, hand, and background.
Do not simply desaturate a color photograph.
Make it look intentionally photographed on black-and-white film.
PHOTOGRAPHIC CHARACTER:
Authentic analog black-and-white portrait photography.
Classic 35mm/medium-format film aesthetic.
Fine natural film grain.
Soft highlight roll-off.
Deep but detailed shadows.
Subtle halation around brighter areas.
Slightly imperfect optical rendering.
Natural tonal compression.
Very subtle lens softness.
Realistic skin texture.
Visible pores and fine facial details.
Natural hair texture.
Realistic knitted fabric.
Realistic hand anatomy.
The image should feel like a real photograph captured on black-and-white film and printed/scanned naturally.
SKIN:
Do not smooth the skin.
Preserve natural pores, tiny imperfections, fine lines, subtle tonal variation, and authentic facial texture.
Avoid porcelain or plastic skin.
The monochrome treatment should preserve the person's real facial character rather than making them look artificially flawless.
COMPOSITIONAL PRIORITY:
1. Preserve the person's identity.
2. Match the pose.
3. Match the facial expression and direct gaze.
4. Match the hand-to-mouth positioning.
5. Match the hair falling across the face.
6. Match the dark clothing.
7. Match the soft black-and-white lighting.
8. Match the dark blurred background.
9. Match the analog photographic texture.
The uploaded identity reference controls the PERSON'S FACE, IDENTITY, AGE, HAIR CHARACTERISTICS, AND NATURAL FEATURES.
The scene reference controls the POSE, CAMERA ANGLE, FRAMING, HAND POSITION, EXPRESSION, LIGHTING, CLOTHING CONCEPT, BACKGROUND, COLOR TREATMENT, AND PHOTOGRAPHIC STYLE.
Do not copy the identity of the scene reference. Recreate the photographic composition around the uploaded person's identity.
NEGATIVE PROMPT:
color image, colored lighting, glamour retouching, beauty filter, plastic skin, porcelain skin, airbrushed skin, excessive skin smoothing, generic model face, altered identity, face replacement, facial reshaping, changed facial proportions, changed eyes, changed nose, changed jawline, altered age, artificial symmetry, anime, cartoon, illustration, digital painting, CGI, 3D render, excessive HDR, oversharpening, artificial bokeh, fake film grain, excessive contrast, harsh flash, dramatic rim light, distorted hand, extra fingers, missing fingers, malformed fingers, floating cigarette, unrealistic smoke, duplicated objects, text, typography, logo, watermark.
FINAL RESULT:
A completely believable black-and-white analog portrait photograph of the SAME PERSON from the uploaded reference, captured in a quiet intimate moment, with the same close framing, hand-to-mouth pose, cigarette placement, direct gaze, hair falling across the face, dark high-neck clothing, soft diffused lighting, dark blurred background, monochrome tonal range, and authentic film-camera character.
Optical Identity & Likeness Preservation: Lock subject's authentic facial identity and natural posture while seamlessly integrating with sharp vehicle reflections and cinematic ambient lighting.👤Customize in Face Consistency Studio
