Fine Art Pet Portrait

Create a softly lit pet portrait that preserves individual markings.

Prompt

Edit the uploaded pet photo into an elegant photographic portrait. Preserve the animal's species, breed characteristics, exact coat markings, muzzle shape, eye color, ear shape, and expression. Replace the background with a soft warm-gray studio backdrop, keeping the existing pose and a believable support surface if visible. Use broad side light, gentle fill, detailed fur, and small natural catchlights. Retain whiskers and fine ear hair. Do not humanize the animal, add accessories, change its proportions, or apply painterly effects. Frame vertically at 4:5 with ears fully visible.
