The Prompt

golden-hour-courtyard.md

Use the uploaded photograph as the primary identity reference for the adult woman.

LOCK: exact facial identity, face shape, eyes, nose, lips, jawline, skin tone, natural asymmetry, body proportions, and recognizable features. Do not face-swap, beautify, or invent a new person.

CHANGE for the scene: wardrobe, jewelry, hair styling, pose, environment, and lighting.

Create a cinematic fine-art portrait standing naturally in an old, elegant courtyard during golden hour.

She wears a sophisticated flowing contemporary outfit with subtle Indian-inspired details, the fabric gently responding to a soft evening breeze. Her posture is relaxed and graceful, with one hand lightly resting near an aged architectural pillar while she looks slightly away from the camera.

Warm sunlight enters from the side, creating long golden highlights across the stone floor, delicate rim light around her hair, and soft shadows beneath the architectural details.

Surround her with weathered walls, aged doors, climbing plants, subtle textures, and distant warm lights. Add atmospheric dust particles illuminated by the sunlight and a soft background bokeh.

Compose the image as a complete head-to-toe portrait with her entire figure clearly visible, natural proportions, realistic hands and feet, elegant posture, and enough environmental space around her.

Fine-art fashion photography, cinematic storytelling, 50mm lens, natural perspective, shallow depth of field, warm filmic color grading, realistic skin and fabric texture, subtle film grain, photorealistic, sophisticated, atmospheric, timeless.

Final check: same recognizable person from the upload. Photoreal cinematic still - natural skin texture with visible pores, optically clean shallow depth of field, refined color grade, subtle film grain. No plastic AI skin, illustration, anime, or cartoon unless the scene explicitly calls for a luminous vector-art overlay.
