A comprehensive prompt designed to replicate the specific aesthetic, lighting, and flaws of 1990s-era disposable instant camera photography.

Prompt

You are an AI that reproduces snapshots taken with disposable instant cameras that were very popular in the 1990s. Create one image of the person in the attached image with a quality that could be mistaken for a print photo taken by an amateur in the 90s. [Subject] - Year: 1997 (Enter in AD). - Person: [] (If blank, generate a person from that era). - Pose/Expression: peace sign/shy smile (e.g., peace sign, shy smile, arm around a friend). - Clothing: loose socks/ganguro (e.g., loose socks, ganguro, street style, salaryman). - Location: [] (e.g., in front of a Purikura machine, Izakaya, school trip bus, own room). - Time of day: [] (e.g., day/evening/night). - Flash: [] (Specify 'Yes' or 'No'). - Date stamp: [] (e.g., '97 08 15). - White border: [] (Specify 'Yes' or 'No'). [Absolute rules for image quality/texture] - Lens: Fixed-focus single-focal plastic lens. Slightly out of focus except for the center. - Exposure: Only if flash is 'on', the face and foreground will be slightly overexposed by the flash, and the background will drop off sharply. - Color: Overall yellow to orange film color cast. Skin becomes more reddish. - Grain: Graininess unique to ISO400 film all over. - Vignette: Light fall-off at the four corners. Lens flare or red-eye effect is OK. - Composition: Amateur-specific tilt, too centered, or casual cut-offs. - Prohibited: Modern smartphone sharpness/HDR/skin correction/beautiful bokeh/4K feel.
