Use this adjusted full prompt in Nano Banana with your photo uploaded as reference, now forcing the model to keep the same gender and traits as the photo.
Use the uploaded photo as the only and exclusive face and character reference. Keep the person’s identity 100% identical to the uploaded photo: same facial features, bone structure, skin tone, gender, age impression, hairstyle shape, and overall facial proportions. Do not change the person’s gender or make the face younger or older. The generated character’s gender, body type, and overall presentation must stay exactly the same as in the uploaded photo, with no feminization or masculinization beyond what is naturally present in the reference. Preserve the exact facial expression, nose, eyes, lips, jawline, chin, ears, and any unique marks such as moles, freckles, scars, pores, or skin texture so the face looks like the same real person from the photo, only transformed into the requested rainy cinematic scene.
Create an ultra‑realistic cinematic side‑profile portrait of the person from the uploaded photo, standing in heavy rain, facing to the right. Frame the shot in a vertical 4:5 portrait ratio, close enough to show the head, neck, and upper shoulders in sharp detail, with the rest of the body and background softly fading out. Keep the expression calm and focused, lips slightly parted, and the visible eye sharp and intense, with a clear blue or blue‑gray tone that matches the original eye color while enhancing its clarity.
Wardrobe and accessories: the character is wearing a black cap pulled low enough to feel natural but not hiding the facial structure taken from the photo. Large orange over‑ear headphones sit over the cap and ears, with rounded ear cups, foam padding, and a solid headband clearly visible in profile. Strands of wet hair should escape from under the cap, sticking naturally to the face, jawline, and neck, following the real hairstyle’s length, direction, and texture from the uploaded image.
Rain and water effects: show heavy rain falling all around, with visible streaks of raindrops across the frame and some drops frozen mid‑air in front of and behind the subject. The skin, cap, headphones, and shoulders must all have a glossy, wet texture: water droplets beading on the surface, tiny streams running down the cheek, and damp fabric clinging slightly to the shoulders. Emphasize subtle specular highlights on the droplets and wet skin so they appear crisp, three‑dimensional, and realistic.
Lighting and background: use a dark, heavily blurred background to isolate the subject—deep blues, charcoals, or near‑black tones with soft bokeh and faint hints of distant lights or structures. Apply dramatic, soft rim lighting from behind or slightly above, creating a gentle glow along the edge of the cap, cheek, jawline, neck, and shoulder, separating the silhouette from the dark background. Maintain soft, cinematic contrast on the face so all skin details, pores, and water texture remain visible without harsh overexposure or beauty‑filter smoothing.
Style and rendering: professional photography look, hyper‑detailed and ultra‑realistic, as if shot with a high‑end camera and fast portrait lens in the rain. Use shallow depth of field so the subject’s profile, visible eye, and water droplets on the face and headphones are razor‑sharp, while the falling rain and background quickly blur into soft streaks and glow. 8K resolution, full definition, with natural color grading that emphasizes cool tones in the scene and subtle warmth in the skin for cinematic balance, while keeping the person’s real skin tone and gender presentation intact.
