16 x 24 Premium Elegant Wedding Couple Album Template

Create a **premium photorealistic wedding/bridal album spread** inspired by the supplied reference layout.

The final canvas is strictly locked to:

**24 inches wide × 16 inches high**

The orientation must remain landscape.

Do not rotate into portrait orientation.

Do not crop the full canvas into another ratio.

Do not stretch, compress, widen, narrow, or otherwise alter the **3:2 landscape proportion**.

---

# MANDATORY ASK-FIRST WORKFLOW

Before generating the album, verify that the user has provided all mandatory inputs.

The template requires:

1. Exactly **3 uploaded photos**
2. A clear decision about whether any text should appear

If these requirements have not yet been satisfied, ask the user:

**“Please upload 3 photos for this template. Also, would you like to show any title, name, date, sentence, or other text on the album? If yes, please provide the exact wording. If not, reply ‘No text.’”**

Do not generate the album until:

- exactly **3 photos** are available, and
- the user has either supplied the exact wording to display or explicitly replied **“No text.”**

Do not ask the user what kind of photographs they are uploading.

The user may upload any suitable photographs they want.

Once the 3 photos and text decision are available, **automatically generate the finished album layout without asking any additional questions.**

---

# EXACT TEXT RULE

If the user provides a title, name, date, sentence, or other wording:

Use **only the exact text supplied by the user**.

Do not:

- invent additional wording
- rewrite the text
- correct spelling unless specifically requested
- change names
- change dates
- shorten the sentence
- expand the sentence
- add captions
- add decorative words
- copy wording from the reference image

Style the supplied wording so it integrates naturally with the reference layout while preserving the exact text itself.

If the user replies:

**“No text.”**

then the final design must contain **zero visible text of any kind**.

---

# FIXED PHOTO MAPPING

Use the uploaded photographs strictly according to upload order.

**Photo 1 → large dominant photograph on the left**

**Photo 2 → smaller upper-right photograph**

**Photo 3 → wider lower-right photograph**

This mapping is permanently fixed.

Do not:

- interchange photos
- duplicate photos
- replace photos
- invent additional photos
- blend two uploaded photos into one slot
- place one photo in multiple locations

Each uploaded photograph must appear only in its assigned position.

---

# PHOTO SOURCE OF TRUTH

Treat each uploaded photograph as the **only and absolute source of truth** for the people and visual content inside that photograph.

Preserve the subjects' real:

- facial identity
- facial proportions
- face shape
- natural skin tone
- natural skin texture
- hairstyle
- hairline
- eyebrows
- eye shape
- nose
- lips
- smile
- cheeks
- jawline
- chin
- age appearance
- body proportions
- clothing
- jewelry
- accessories
- expression
- pose whenever compatible with the required crop

Do not:

- beautify faces
- reshape facial features
- slim bodies
- change body proportions
- smooth away natural age
- lighten skin
- alter ethnicity
- change hairstyle unnecessarily
- change clothing
- change jewelry
- substitute people
- invent people
- create pasted-face effects

The final result must look like a professionally designed album using the **actual uploaded photographs**, not like regenerated versions of the people.

---

# MASTER LAYOUT STRUCTURE

Reproduce the reference image's strong **asymmetrical editorial wedding-album composition**.

The overall spread should feel modern, elegant, premium, minimal, and professionally designed.

Maintain a strong visual contrast between:

- large photography
- white or soft ivory negative space
- charcoal graphic structure
- neutral gray accent blocks
- restrained typography when text is requested

Do not redesign the album into a different composition.

---

# LEFT SECTION — PHOTO 1

Dedicate approximately **58–60% of the full album width** to the dominant left-side photograph.

Place **Photo 1** as the largest image in the spread.

Its placement should begin close to the left outer margin.

The photograph should occupy much of the middle and lower-left section of the canvas.

It should extend from approximately the upper-middle portion of the spread toward the lower edge.

The image must feel:

- dominant
- immersive
- editorial
- visually important

Use a clean rectangular crop.

Crop only when necessary to fit the layout.

Preserve the important subject and facial areas whenever possible.

Do not distort the image.

Keep a narrow, refined white or soft-ivory margin around the outer left and bottom boundaries.

---

# TOP-LEFT NEGATIVE SPACE

Maintain a broad horizontal area of **clean white or very-light ivory negative space** across the upper-left region.

This negative space is an essential part of the composition.

Do not fill it with unnecessary decorations.

If the user has selected **No text**, keep this entire area clean.

If the user provides exact wording, this area may be used for subtle editorial typography if that placement best matches the reference composition.

Do not add any text that the user did not explicitly provide.

---

# UPPER-RIGHT DARK PANEL

Create a large **deep charcoal to near-black rectangular graphic panel** in the upper-right portion of the spread.

The panel should begin around the center-right region and continue toward the right edge.

Maintain:

- straight rectangular geometry
- clean edges
- flat sophisticated tone
- strong contrast against the white background

Do not use gradients unless extremely subtle and visually indistinguishable from a flat charcoal tone.

Do not introduce texture, patterns, floral artwork, ornaments, icons, or decorative illustrations.

If the reference includes words inside this region, do **not** copy them.

If the user supplies exact text, the dark panel may be used as a typography area only when appropriate to the reference hierarchy.

If the user says **No text**, leave the dark panel completely blank.

---

# RIGHT-SIDE EDITORIAL COLLAGE

Construct a compact layered collage across the right portion of the spread.

The collage should visually overlap and interact with:

- the white background
- charcoal panel
- gray design block
- Photo 2
- Photo 3

The arrangement must remain clean and geometric rather than decorative or scrapbook-like.

---

# MEDIUM-GRAY ACCENT BLOCK

Place a muted **medium-gray vertical rectangular block** behind and slightly toward the left side of Photo 2.

This rectangle is a purely graphic design element.

It must remain:

- solid
- neutral
- minimal
- rectangular
- text-free unless exact user text is intentionally assigned there

Do not treat this block as another photograph slot.

Do not place an additional image inside it.

Do not create patterns, textures, symbols, floral motifs, or icons inside it.

---

# PHOTO 2 — UPPER-RIGHT IMAGE

Place **Photo 2** in the upper-right quadrant.

Use a medium-size landscape or near-square rectangular crop similar to the reference layout.

Position it so that it visually overlaps the right-side graphic structure.

It may sit partially against:

- white space
- charcoal
- gray structural elements

Maintain clean professional alignment.

Photo 2 should be noticeably smaller than Photo 1.

Do not enlarge it to compete with the dominant left image.

Crop naturally while preserving important facial and subject details.

---

# CENTER-RIGHT WHITE PANEL

Below Photo 2, create a broad clean **white or very-light ivory rectangular panel**.

This panel is part of the editorial composition and should remain visually simple.

If the user replies **No text**, leave this panel completely empty.

If the user provides exact text, this white panel may be used as one of the typography areas when that best matches the reference composition.

Never add:

- placeholder text
- lorem ipsum
- random dates
- decorative words
- captions
- monograms
- badges
- logos
- fake signatures

---

# PHOTO 3 — LOWER-RIGHT IMAGE

Place **Photo 3** as a wider horizontal photograph across the lower-right area.

Position it close to the lower edge.

Its visual alignment should connect naturally with the upper-right collage.

Keep the image clearly separated from Photo 2 while maintaining the layered editorial appearance.

Photo 3 should be wider than Photo 2 but still visually secondary to the dominant Photo 1.

Maintain natural proportions.

Do not stretch the photograph.

Do not distort people or objects.

---

# TYPOGRAPHY RULES WHEN TEXT IS PROVIDED

Only apply this section when the user has supplied exact wording.

Use the exact wording only.

Match the visual character of the reference album as closely as appropriate through:

- refined editorial typography
- elegant serif or sophisticated minimalist type
- restrained hierarchy
- deliberate spacing
- clean alignment
- subtle size contrast
- premium wedding-album styling

Text should feel integrated into the album design rather than pasted on top.

Do not use oversized decorative typography unless the reference composition clearly supports it.

Never add additional words simply to make the design feel fuller.

The user's exact wording is the **entire allowable text source**.

---

# STRICT NO-TEXT MODE

If the user selects **No text**, enforce a complete no-text rule.

The final album must contain:

**ZERO visible text.**

Do not generate:

- names
- dates
- years
- headings
- quotes
- captions
- logos
- watermarks
- monograms
- letters
- numbers
- decorative typography
- fake writing
- pseudo-text
- gibberish
- symbols that resemble lettering

Any locations where the reference image originally contained text must instead remain clean graphic negative space.

---

# COLOR AND DESIGN LANGUAGE

Maintain the following visual framework:

- clean white background
- soft ivory tones where appropriate
- deep charcoal / near-black upper-right panel
- neutral medium-gray accent rectangle
- strong rectangular geometry
- asymmetrical editorial balance
- generous negative space
- premium wedding-album presentation
- sophisticated modern print-design aesthetic

Avoid introducing new colors that overpower the uploaded photographs.

---

# PROHIBITED DESIGN ELEMENTS

Do not add:

- floral graphics
- decorative foliage
- ornate frames
- gold borders
- scrapbook embellishments
- stickers
- icons
- hearts
- clip-art
- ribbons
- decorative corner flourishes
- heavy shadows
- textured paper effects
- unnecessary gradients
- random graphic objects
- unrelated decorative elements

Keep the spread clean, modern, restrained, and editorial.

---

# IMAGE TREATMENT

Do not recolor the uploaded photographs simply to force them to match the reference.

Preserve their authentic photographic character.

Only apply subtle professional album-finishing adjustments when necessary, such as:

- balanced exposure
- natural contrast
- restrained sharpening
- accurate skin tones
- controlled highlights
- balanced shadows
- subtle print-ready consistency

Do not apply:

- excessive saturation
- artificial glow
- heavy HDR
- unrealistic skin smoothing
- painterly effects
- illustration effects
- AI-painted textures
- strong color replacement
- cinematic recoloring that changes the original identity of the photographs

---

# PHOTOGRAPH CROPPING RULE

Cropping is allowed only to fit the fixed album slots.

When cropping:

- preserve faces
- preserve important subjects
- maintain natural body proportions
- avoid cutting through faces
- avoid awkward limb crops whenever possible
- avoid unnecessary extreme zoom
- never stretch an image to fit the slot

Do not alter the album layout simply because a photograph has a different native orientation.

Adapt the crop while keeping the template fixed.

---

# EXACT CANVAS LOCK

Final canvas:

**24 inches wide × 16 inches high**

Orientation:

**Landscape**

Aspect ratio:

**Exact 3:2**

This ratio is mandatory.

Do not output:

- 2:3 portrait
- 4:3
- 3:4
- square
- 16:9
- panoramic ratios
- any alternative canvas proportion

The entire finished album spread must remain **exactly 3:2 landscape** from generation through final output.

---

# FINAL GENERATION BEHAVIOR

When all mandatory inputs are available:

- exactly 3 uploaded photos
- exact user text OR explicit **No text** confirmation

generate the finished album immediately.

Do not repeat the prompt.

Do not ask more questions.

Do not ask for pose descriptions.

Do not ask what each image contains.

Do not ask the user to choose photo positions.

Use the fixed upload-order mapping automatically.

**16″ H × 24″ W — exact 3:2 landscape**

with:

- Photo 1 in the large left position
- Photo 2 in the upper-right position
- Photo 3 in the lower-right position
- the reference composition closely preserved
- exact user wording only when supplied
- absolutely no text when **No text** is selected
- all uploaded photographs faithfully preserved
- no unnecessary redesign of the template.
