The top 50–55% should be a cinematic, highly realistic photograph of {subject_scene}, captured like an authentic film photograph. Natural candid composition, warm nostalgic atmosphere, soft diffused light, subtle film grain, realistic textures, slightly muted vintage colors, autumnal/warm earthy tones, shallow depth of field where appropriate, beautifully composed but not overly polished. The bottom 45–50% should look like a vintage handmade scrapbook / travel journal page, printed on warm cream textured paper. Recreate small elements from the photograph as loose colored-pencil and watercolor doodle illustrations arranged in a clean 3×3 or balanced grid. Include simple hand-drawn objects related to the scene such as {object_1}, {object_2}. Use imperfect sketch lines, subtle pencil strokes, watercolor bleed, slightly uneven coloring and authentic handmade imperfections. Add a short handwritten title at the top of the illustrated section: “{title}”, in casual imperfect black/gray handwritten lettering. Add tiny decorative elements such as hearts, dots, clouds, leaves, stars, waves or small doodles around the illustrations. At the very bottom, add a small handwritten caption: “{short_caption}”. Overall aesthetic: cozy Pinterest editorial, nostalgic travel diary, vintage film photography + children’s sketchbook illustration, warm analog memories, premium lifestyle magazine composition, tactile paper texture, understated and elegant, emotionally warm, authentic rather than overly digital. Composition: vertical 4:5, clean separation between photograph and illustration, balanced negative space, consistent visual storytelling between the photo and drawings. Important: preserve realistic photography in the top section; do not turn the photograph into an illustration. The lower section should clearly look hand-drawn. Avoid excessive text, distorted lettering, photorealistic doodles, CGI appearance, oversaturation, clutter, or overly perfect vector graphics. ``` ## Variables Replace each `{variable}` before you paste the prompt. | Variable | Label | Example | |---|---|---| | `{subject_scene}` | subject scene | [SUBJECT / SCENE] | | `{object_1}` | object 1 | [OBJECT 1] | | `{object_2}` | object 2 | [OBJECT 2] | | `{title}` | title | [TITLE] | | `{short_caption}` | short caption | [SHORT CAPTION] | ## About A prompt template for creating a nostalgic editorial scrapbook image that combines a realistic photograph with hand-drawn illustrations using GPT Image 2.
