    Same expression style and gaze

    No face smoothing, no AI beauty filter, no plastic skin

    A clean center part

    Two thin face-framing strands left loose at the front

  • Sharp Formal Contrast

    Sharp Formal Contrast

    Preserve the same identity, facial structure, beard shape(if present), hairstyle, and overall appearance with high accuracy. Do not change the person’s face.
    Create a high-end studio fashion portrait of a man, framed from mid-thigh upward, in a 4:5 vertical aspect ratio.
    The man stands in a confident, asymmetrical pose: one hand casually resting in his trouser pocket, the other lightly gripping the front of his blazer near the button, as if adjusting it. His shoulders are relaxed, and his head is slightly tilted, giving a composed, self-assured presence. His facial expression is calm and confident, with a subtle, knowing half-smile. He looks directly at the camera.
    The face closely matches the uploaded reference image, including:

    Dark, thick natural styled hair with volume on top and closely groomed sides
    Dark, full eyebrows and expressive eyes
    Warm, even skin tone with natural highlights on cheekbones, jawline, and nose
    He wears a tailored cream or ivory blazer, slim-fit and structured to emphasize the shoulders and torso. The blazer features subtle gold-toned embroidery or stitching along the lapels, seams, and pocket flaps. A single gold button fastens the blazer at the waist. Underneath is a fully buttoned black dress shirt and a slim matte black tie, creating strong contrast. He wears black tailored trousers, cleanly pressed and elegant.
    A dark wristwatch with a metallic case and black strap is visible on one wrist, adding a refined masculine detail.

    Lighting
    Warm, professional studio lighting.

    A soft key light illuminates the face and upper body, revealing fabric texture and embroidery details. Shadows are smooth and gradual, sculpting the jawline, shoulders, and chest without harsh contrast.
    Background (IMPORTANT)
    The background is a luxurious, high-end studio gradient, not a physical location.

    It consists of rich warm brown, amber, and golden caramel tones, smoothly blended with no visible texture, noise, or objects.
    A warm, small diffused backlight is positioned behind the subject head, creating a soft golden halo around the head and upper torso
    The background forms a radial gradient, brightest at the center behind the subject and gradually fading into deep, dark brown to near-black edges, creating a subtle vignette
    The gradient is perfectly smooth and softly blurred, with no banding, harsh transitions, or hotspots
    Lighting is low-contrast and evenly spread, adding depth and clean separation from the background
    The overall look is cinematic, elegant, and premium, enhancing the subject without distraction
    No props, patterns, or environmental elements appear in the background.

    Overall Mood
    Luxurious, modern, confident, and timeless—resembling a high-end fashion editorial or premium menswear campaign. The color palette of cream, black, gold, and warm browns reinforces sophistication and elegance.
    Ensure realistic anatomy, natural skin texture, accurate hands, and faithful face matching. Avoid stylization, distortion, or identity changes.
