Turn your first-birthday photo into a valiant little general riding a rocking horse, wearing red traditional armor and a feathered helmet with a long spear, war banners and a hanok cherry-blossom backdrop behind.
Prompt
[Purpose] Convert the user's attached baby photo into a Korean first-birthday studio portrait of a valiant little general SEATED ON A WOODEN ROCKING HORSE, wearing RED traditional Korean armor and a feathered helmet, holding a long ceremonial spear, with golden war banners, a hanok facade, and cherry blossoms behind, on a warm studio set. [Scene — image-to-image edit, preserve identity] Use the user's attached baby photo as the base. PRESERVE the child's identity: face proportions, eye shape, soft chubby cheeks, skin tone. The child remains recognizably the same. Realistic photographic tone (NOT illustration). Korean Asian baby (around 12 months), bright cheerful open-mouth smile, eyes clearly visible, soft hair at the front hairline under the helmet. OUTFIT (FIXED, single default): - HEADWEAR: a small TRADITIONAL GENERAL'S HELMET in red and gold with a tall WHITE FEATHER PLUME and a small round crest, FITTED softly on the head, NOT lowered over the eyes, full face clearly visible, hair wisps at the front hairline. - BODY: a RED TRADITIONAL KOREAN LAMELLAR ARMOR vest (red fabric with gold round studs and gold trim) over a deep-red hanbok, small shoulder guards, a subtle gold phoenix motif on the chest. Fitted to a baby's body, comfortable and soft. POSE + ROCKING HORSE (HERO element): - A handsome WOODEN ROCKING HORSE (rich brown wood, ornate carved saddle with gold-and-crimson armor-style barding and a flowing mane) at the center of the frame. - The baby SITS UPRIGHT on the rocking horse, both legs astride, one hand resting on the saddle pommel, the other hand loosely holding a LONG CEREMONIAL SPEAR (blunt prop, shaft resting upright against the shoulder, tip well above and away from the face). The spear rests naturally against the hand — no forced grip, natural baby fingers, 5 fingers per hand. WAR-CAMP PROPS + BACKDROP: - Behind: two or three tall GOLDEN-YELLOW WAR BANNERS on poles with red tassels (plain or simple decorative emblem, NO readable text), flanking the scene. - A soft HANOK facade with tiled roof on the left and gentle CHERRY BLOSSOM branches in the upper corners. - A couple of ivory pillar candles and white blossoms near the base. FLOOR + BACKDROP: - The rocking horse stands on a smooth studio floor with a soft neutral rug. - Seamless soft IVORY-GREY studio backdrop behind the hanok set, gently graded. BABY PROMINENCE RULE (CRITICAL): - Baby is the PRIMARY SUBJECT, centered and elevated on the rocking horse. - Baby's HEAD/FACE occupies about 20-25% of canvas height, positioned around the upper-center of the frame. - Spear, banners, and hanok stay BEHIND and to the sides, NOTHING covers the face; the spear tip never crosses the face. [Style] Premium Korean first-birthday studio photography. Soft diffused light, warm regal tone, rich textures on the armor and wood, subtle film grain. Color palette: red + gold + deep crimson + soft ivory. Realistic photographic tone. [Text] NO text, NO logos, NO watermarks, NO studio names; banners carry NO readable letters. [Aspect] 3:4 vertical portrait, 1024 x 1366. [IMPORTANT] - Preserve the child's face, eye shape, skin tone, and natural baby proportions EXACTLY from the source photo. - The helmet is FITTED and sits above the brow — full face clearly visible, never lowered over the eyes. - The spear is a blunt ceremonial prop resting against the hand — no forced grip, 5 fingers per hand, tip away from the face. - Armor is soft costume fabric fitted to a baby, comfortable, not heavy or sharp. - NO readable text on banners, NO real clan emblems or logos. - NO Instagram UI, NO captions, NO watermarks. - Subject is a photographic, real child. Rocking horse, armor, spear, banners are studio props.
