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 body proportions completely unchanged. Transform the photo into a Y2K 2000s retro aesthetic portrait. Dress them in baggy cargo pants, a colorful retro windbreaker jacket and chunky sneakers, with a chain necklace, standing against a vibrant early-2000s style backdrop. Pose: cool and confident, looking toward the camera. Lighting: bright flash-photography look with a soft retro color grade and gentle shadows. Camera: vertical 4:5 Instagram framing, 50mm lens look, shallow depth of field with sharp focus on the face. Keep realistic skin texture, natural fabric detail and a photorealistic finish. The result should look like a genuine Y2K fashion photograph of the same person.
