Transform the uploaded photograph into a premium handcrafted layered paper-cut illustration while preserving the identity of every visible person and the complete original scene.
IDENTITY PRESERVATION:
Keep each visible person's facial identity, facial proportions, expression, skin tone, hairstyle or head covering, clothing, accessories if present, eyewear if present, facial hair if present, body proportions, pose, and camera perspective clearly recognizable.
Preserve age, ethnicity, natural facial asymmetry, and distinctive features. Do not beautify, age-shift, or reinterpret the face.
Do not replace the original person or people with generic characters.
PAPER-CUT STYLE:
Rebuild the entire image as a sophisticated handcrafted cardstock diorama using:
- multiple stacked paper layers
- clean laser-cut edges
- realistic cardstock thickness
- visible fine paper fiber texture
- softly rounded cut-paper shapes
- subtle shadows between individual layers
- tactile handmade surfaces
- layered foreground, midground, and background depth
- elegant simplified shapes without losing important details
- premium editorial papercraft quality
ENVIRONMENT:
Preserve the original location and major landmarks.
Translate architecture, trees, plants, paving, sky, clouds, people, furniture, vehicles, and environmental objects into the same cohesive layered-paper aesthetic.
If the scene contains historic architecture, a landmark, or any recognizable structure, preserve its distinctive silhouette, location, and proportions instead of inventing a different structure.
BACKGROUND PEOPLE:
Simplify distant people tastefully into smaller layered-paper figures while preserving their approximate positions.
LIGHTING:
Preserve the original lighting direction and atmosphere with soft realistic shadows cast between the paper layers.
Use pleasant natural daylight and balanced colors based on the uploaded photograph.
COMPOSITION:
Preserve:
- original camera angle
- original crop
- selfie perspective if present
- subject position
- foreground/background relationship
- major landmarks
- important objects
Do not significantly change the composition.
If the uploaded reference is a screenshot, ignore and remove any app, browser, or social-media interface overlays. Reconstruct only the underlying photograph as layered paper art.
Avoid:
plastic 3D rendering,
clay style,
Pixar style,
anime,
flat vector graphics without paper depth,
generic faces,
distorted hands,
extra fingers,
random objects,
new buildings,
duplicated people,
text,
logos,
captions,
watermarks,
or interface elements.
The result should look like a professional artist reconstructed the original photograph by hand using precisely cut and layered premium cardstock.
Create ONE single finished image only.
