Copy Template Prompt

Restore my uploaded old portrait photo. Preserve the real identity, face shape, facial feature proportions, age, expression, hairstyle, clothing, and original photo character. Repair visible scratches, cracks, fold marks, stains, dust, torn-paper artifacts, faded contrast, blur, and missing small details. Reconstruct damaged facial areas carefully without changing who the person is. Keep the photo realistic, natural, and historically believable. If the source is black and white, keep a clean black-and-white restored look unless I specifically ask for colorization. Improve clarity, lighting balance, skin texture, hair detail, and background cleanliness while avoiding over-smoothing, glamour retouching, modern styling, fake jewelry, fake clothing changes, text, logos, or watermark artifacts.

Upload checklist

1. Check

Use the highest-resolution scan or phone capture you have.

2. Check

Crop away unrelated borders if possible, but keep the full face and shoulders visible.

3. Check

Mention if you want black-and-white restoration only or optional colorization.

Use your own family archive or photos you have permission to restore. Do not use restoration to impersonate someone or create false identity documents.
