The prompt that gets copied

Image 1 is me as a child. Image 2 is me today. Create a warm, candid instant-camera style photo of my adult self from Image 2 giving a gentle hug to my younger self from Image 1. Keep both faces exactly as they appear in the photos. My adult self is kneeling down to the child's height, eyes closed, smiling softly. The child is [HOW THE CHILD LOOKS, e.g. laughing and hugging back]. We're [THE SETTING, e.g. on front steps in late afternoon light]. Soft, warm vintage colors, a little film grain, and a white instant-photo border. Emotional, nostalgic, and tender, not staged.

Upload a childhood photo and a recent one, and get a warm, instant-camera style photo of today's you hugging little you. It's a natural fit for inner-child and personal growth posts.

Step by step
