MASTER FACE-MATCH RULE — HIGHEST PRIORITY: Unmistakably and precisely the same woman from the attached reference photo. Preserve her exact hairline, hair texture, brow shape, eye shape and spacing, nose bridge, lip shape, jawline, cheekbone structure, and skin tone. Discard the reference photo's own lighting, background, and clothing; rebuild fully as below.

THE IDEA: a joyful, whimsical Teacher's Day portrait — she stands smiling directly at the camera, surrounded by softly floating hand-drawn doodles: little paper hearts, pencil-sketch stars, and simple squiggly "thank you" scribbles (rendered as pure abstract line-doodles, never as legible words), as if a student's card has come to life around her.

EXPRESSION: genuine, touched, warm smile — eyes bright, slightly bashful joy, like receiving heartfelt appreciation.

SETTING: a soft pastel gradient background (cream, blush, pale blue), doodle elements gently drifting at varying depths of blur around her.

STYLING: a simple, soft-colored kurta or top, hair worn naturally, minimal jewelry — approachable and warm.

CAMERA: mid-shot, 50mm lens, doodles rendered with a hand-drawn pencil/crayon texture, soft selective focus keeping her sharp.

LIGHT: soft, even, flattering studio-style light with a gentle warm tone, minimal shadow.

DETAIL: crayon and pencil texture on the doodle elements, honest skin texture with visible pores, sharp catchlights in the eyes, natural fabric texture.

COLOUR STORY: pastel cream, blush pink, soft sky blue, warm skin tones, graphite-grey doodle lines.

A true photograph of the woman (doodles stylized as hand-drawn elements only), not an illustration of the person, fine natural film grain on her portion. Vertical 9:16 frame, face safely positioned for a square crop. No readable text anywhere — no words, no legible letters, no logos, no brands.

How to use this prompt

Provide a high-quality reference photo of the specific woman to ensure the face match is precise. The prompt expects a vertical format with the subject at mid-shot; ensure her facial features are sharp while the doodles are rendered in a crayon-like texture. Adjust the saturation or brightness if the pastels appear too washed out in the final result.
