Together in Graphite – Timeless Couple Sketch

Use the uploaded couple photo as the ONLY facial identity and body reference.
Create a highly realistic hand-drawn graphite pencil portrait closely matching the supplied pencil-art reference.
FACE PRESERVATION — HIGHEST PRIORITY
Preserve both uploaded people's real facial identities exactly.
Keep their original eyes, eye shape, eyebrows, nose, lips, smile, cheeks, ears, forehead, chin, jawline, face shape, hairstyle, hairline, age and facial proportions unchanged.
Do not beautify, reconstruct or modify either face.
Both people must remain immediately recognizable from the uploaded photograph.
PENCIL ART STYLE
Convert the entire photograph into an authentic professional graphite pencil drawing.
Use fine HB, 2B, 4B and 6B pencil-style strokes.
Detailed facial line work.
Soft graphite shading on skin.
Fine cross-hatching and smooth tonal transitions.
Realistic dark hair rendered with individual pencil strokes.
Natural highlights should appear as untouched paper.
No colour anywhere.
COMPOSITION
Keep the couple's original relationship and natural pose from the uploaded photo.
Arrange them sitting close together like the reference pencil artwork.
One person may naturally place an arm around the other's shoulder if compatible with the original pose.
Keep realistic body proportions.
Show approximately from head to knees / seated three-quarter body.
CLOTHING
Preserve the basic shape and style of the clothing from the uploaded photo.
Render all clothing entirely in graphite pencil with realistic folds, seams and fabric shading.
Do not invent complicated new clothing.
BACKGROUND
Create a softly sketched natural background inspired by the uploaded photo.
Use loose pencil strokes for trees, branches, foliage or surrounding scenery.
Background details should be lighter and less detailed than the couple so the faces remain the main focus.
PAPER STYLE
Draw the artwork on realistic white sketchbook paper.
Very subtle paper grain and texture.
Optional faint notebook/grid construction lines may be visible extremely lightly, similar to a genuine artist's working sketch.
Keep the finished portrait clean and professional.
REAL HAND-DRAWN EFFECT
Make it look like an actual artist manually drew the portrait with graphite pencils.
Natural pencil pressure variation.
Visible fine strokes.
Realistic cross-hatching.
Soft smudged shadows.
Detailed eyes, lips and hair.
Not a digital pencil filter.
