Nostalgic Childhood Memory

Transform the woman in the attached reference image(s) into a genuinely adorable childhood version of herself, approximately 6–9 years old. Aspect ratio 4:5 portrait.

FACE MATCH — TOP PRIORITY: The child must be unmistakably the SAME person as in the reference image(s). Identity accuracy matters more than cuteness, outfit or background. Study the reference face carefully and preserve, in child form:
- exact face shape and jawline/chin shape
- eye shape, eye size ratio, eye spacing, eyelid type and iris color
- eyebrow shape, thickness and arch
- nose shape — bridge, tip and nostril width (scaled down, not replaced with a generic small nose)
- lip shape, lip thickness and the exact way they smile (teeth showing or not, smile curve, dimples if present)
- ear shape, forehead size and hairline shape
- EXACT same skin tone and undertone — do not lighten, whiten or change complexion
- any distinctive marks such as moles, birthmarks or freckles in the same position
Age-regress naturally: only soften and scale features to child proportions (slightly fuller cheeks, smoother skin, proportionally larger eyes) — do NOT replace their features with generic cute child features. If multiple reference images are attached, combine them to understand the face from every angle and keep the child consistent with all of them. Natural black hair only — no grey, white or salt-and-pepper hair.
A family member should instantly recognise this child as that person. The test: "This is literally them as a kid."

SUBJECT: One little girl. No adult facial maturity, no makeup, no mature styling. Cute age-appropriate hairstyle as described in the scene.

SCENE: A grandparents' traditional village house during summer vacation. Courtyard steps with red oxide flooring, mango tree shade, brass water pots, an old bicycle leaning on a whitewashed wall, warm golden afternoon light with dust particles glowing in the sunbeams. The girl wears a simple cotton frock with her hair in two oiled braids. She sits on the courtyard steps holding a big juicy half-eaten mango, juice on her fingers and cheeks, laughing happily.

FRAMING: Face clearly visible, sharp and well-lit, facing the camera or at most a slight three-quarter angle, nothing covering any part of the face. Medium close-up so the face is large enough in the frame to carry the likeness.

STYLE: Realistic nostalgic photograph, warm tones, natural skin texture, gentle background blur. Wholesome, innocent, emotionally warm.

AVOID: changing the person's identity, generic or 'beautified' child faces, lighter or different skin tone, copying the adult face exactly, adult facial maturity, generic unrelated children, cartoon or baby-doll features, exaggerated eyes, adult makeup or styling, face turned away or covered, text, watermarks, distorted hands or extra fingers.

GOAL: "Awww… this actually looks like her when she was a little kid."
