AI Photo Editing Prompt

PromptUse the uploaded photo as the exact face and identity reference. Keep the person's facial identity, skin tone, facial proportions, hairstyle and natural features completely unchanged. Transform the photo into a futuristic cyberpunk neon portrait. Place the person on a dark city street with glowing neon signs, wet reflective pavement and subtle fog. Light them with magenta and cyan neon rim lighting that separates them from the background, with realistic skin texture and natural shadows. Pose: confident, looking toward the camera. Camera: vertical 4:5 Instagram framing, 50mm lens look, shallow depth of field with sharp focus on the face. The result should look like a cinematic cyberpunk portrait of the same person, photorealistic rather than cartoon-like.
