Candid Night Street Portrait AI Prompt | Raw Smartphone Flash Photography

Ultra-realistic candid smartphone photograph, 9:16 vertical.
Identity Preservation (HIGHEST PRIORITY)
Use the attached reference image as the exact identity reference.
The person's identity is the single highest priority and must remain unchanged throughout the image.
Preserve exactly:
Facial structure
Head shape
Jawline
Cheekbones
Forehead
Hairline
Hairstyle
Beard and facial hair density
Eyebrows
Eye shape
Eye spacing
Nose
Lips
Smile
Ear shape
Skin tone
Age
Natural facial proportions
The generated subject must be unmistakably the same person as the reference.
Never beautify, enhance, stylize, age, de-age, or alter the identity.
If any visual effect conflicts with identity preservation, identity always takes priority.
Do not generate a similar-looking person.
Do not reinterpret facial features.
Do not perform face replacement.
Do not modify facial proportions.
Do not hallucinate a different face.
