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, pose and composition completely unchanged. Transform the photo into a nostalgic polaroid instant photograph. Add a classic white polaroid frame around the image and apply soft, slightly washed-out colors, gentle film grain, slightly imperfect exposure and a warm nostalgic feel. Keep the scene, lighting and mood of the original photo. The result should look like a genuine instant-film photograph of the same person, printed and slightly aged, not a digital edit.
