The complete prompt

Detailed Image Generation Prompt

Create an ultra-realistic, cinematic editorial portrait photograph of a young woman in a dark, moody indoor setting. The photograph should feel like a genuine low-light DSLR film photograph, with warm vintage tones, deep shadows, subtle film grain, and an intimate late-evening atmosphere. It should look photographic and natural, not AI-generated, CGI, or overly polished.

SUBJECT & COMPOSITION:
A young woman stands on the right side of the frame, shown from approximately the waist/chest upward. Her body is angled slightly away from the camera while her face turns back toward the lens. She has a relaxed, confident, slightly mysterious expression, with her lips gently parted and her eyes looking directly toward the camera.

Her head is tilted subtly toward one shoulder, creating an elegant editorial pose. Her shoulders are relaxed and her posture is natural.

FACE & IDENTITY:
If using my uploaded photo as the identity reference, use my uploaded photo as the ONLY identity reference and preserve my face exactly. Keep my real and recognizable:

face shape and proportions

forehead

eyes, eye shape and spacing

eyebrows

nose shape and proportions

lips and natural lip shape

cheeks and cheekbones

jawline and chin

skin tone

natural facial asymmetry

age appearance

distinctive facial characteristics


Do not change, redesign, beautify, reshape, slim, widen, feminize, de-age, or replace my face. Do not create a generic/model face. My face must remain unmistakably me. Keep realistic pores and natural skin texture.

HAIR:
Long, thick, dark brown-to-black hair flowing naturally past the shoulders and down the body. Hair is parted slightly off-center with soft natural volume at the crown. A few loose strands frame the face. The hair should have realistic individual strands and subtle highlights created by the warm light. Keep the overall hairstyle slightly tousled and effortless rather than perfectly styled.

CLOTHING:
She is wearing an elegant black off-the-shoulder outfit, exposing the shoulders and upper collarbone naturally. The fabric appears soft and dark, with subtle texture visible where the warm light catches it.

Over one side of the outfit is a black sheer/lace-textured fabric or shawl, which she gently holds with one hand near the opposite side of her body. The fabric should have delicate, realistic patterns and folds.

Minimal jewelry: small elegant earrings and a very subtle delicate necklace. No excessive accessories.

POSE & HANDS:
One hand is positioned naturally across the front of her body, gently holding the dark sheer fabric. Fingers should be anatomically correct and relaxed. The other arm remains mostly within the dark clothing/shadow. Avoid stiff or artificial hand positioning.

LIGHTING:
Use dramatic warm tungsten/amber side lighting coming predominantly from the front-right/side of the subject.

The light should softly illuminate:

forehead

eyes

cheekbones

nose

lips

jawline

shoulders and collarbone


Keep the opposite side of the face and body partially submerged in deep shadows. Create a strong low-key chiaroscuro lighting effect without completely losing facial detail.

The lighting should have a slightly nostalgic late-1980s/1990s film-photography feel, with warm amber highlights and muted olive-brown shadows.

BACKGROUND:
A simple dark olive-brown interior wall behind the subject. The background should be mostly plain and uncluttered, with very subtle tonal variation.

On the left side of the frame, include a large dark silhouette/shadow resembling the woman's figure or reflection, creating an artistic double-image effect. Keep this secondary silhouette intentionally much darker and less detailed than the main subject.

The right and outer edges of the frame should gradually fall into very deep shadows, producing a subtle vignette.

CAMERA & PHOTOGRAPHIC STYLE:

Professional DSLR/editorial photography

Vertical portrait composition

Approximately 50mm or 85mm lens

Shallow depth of field

Subject sharply focused

Background softly blurred

Natural optical falloff

Slightly soft vintage lens rendering

Realistic skin texture

Individual hair strands visible

Fine photographic grain

Subtle analog-film texture

Slight warm color cast

Deep blacks without crushing all details

Natural highlight roll-off

No excessive HDR

No plastic skin

No artificial sharpening


COLOR GRADING:
Warm, muted, cinematic color palette with amber/golden skin highlights, olive-brown background tones, deep blacks, and subtle reddish-brown shadows. Slightly desaturated vintage film grading while keeping natural skin tones.

MOOD:
Mysterious, elegant, intimate, sophisticated, nostalgic, cinematic, and slightly melancholic—but still natural and graceful.

IMAGE QUALITY:
Ultra-realistic, high-resolution professional photograph, authentic human proportions, realistic hands, realistic hair, natural facial texture, physically believable lighting, subtle film grain, photographic depth, genuine camera imperfections.

NEGATIVE PROMPT:
AI-looking face, generic face, altered identity, face swap, different person, beauty-filter face, plastic skin, excessive skin smoothing, over-sharpening, CGI, 3D render, cartoon, doll-like features, unrealistic eyes, enlarged eyes, changed nose, changed lips, altered jawline, artificial symmetry, distorted hands, extra fingers, missing fingers, warped anatomy, excessive makeup, harsh HDR, excessive saturation, flat lighting, bright studio background, modern glossy aesthetic, text, watermark, logo, extra people.
