Prompt
Transform the uploaded clean digital lifestyle photo into an authentic analog film photography image while preserving the subject, denim overshirt, white t-shirt, coffee mug, kitchen window, wooden table, and relaxed morning mood. Make it look like a scanned 35mm color negative: visible but natural film grain, soft halation around window highlights, warm slightly faded colors, lifted black levels, gentle contrast, subtle dust specks, mild vignette, small light leak near one edge, imperfect exposure, organic skin tones, shallow natural depth of field, nostalgic snapshot feeling, not over-processed, no modern smartphone sharpness. No readable text, no logos, no watermark, no celebrity resemblance, no distorted face or hands, square 1:1 composition.
