The complete prompt
Ultra-realistic professional DSLR photograph of a young South Asian man seated at an outdoor café/barber-style workstation in bright daytime, framed vertically in a 4:5 portrait composition from above the head to below the waist. Replace only the subject’s identity with [MY FACE], preserving the exact facial structure, natural asymmetry, skin tone and distinctive features. He sits slightly right of center in a black metal-and-leather chair, torso facing mostly toward the camera while his head turns strongly to his left in a clean side-profile, gaze directed off-frame, with a calm, serious expression. Neatly styled thick black hair swept back with a slightly elongated textured back, defined eyebrows, trimmed moustache and short goatee, small silver hoop earring, thin oval vintage sunglasses with dark reflective lenses and gold-toned frames. He wears a sophisticated dark brown finely textured double-breasted blazer, crisp pale blue-white collared shirt and a narrow dark tie with diagonal burgundy and light stripes; his right hand naturally grips and adjusts the tie near the knot, wearing a metallic wristwatch. Foreground contains a softly blurred workstation/table covered with realistic barber or grooming bottles, spray containers and tools, creating strong layered depth. Lush green foliage and tree branches surround the setting, with a bright sunlit street/park-like background rendered heavily out of focus. Natural daylight enters strongly from the upper-right/background, producing warm highlights, soft directional shadows and gentle rim illumination around the hair and shoulders. Shot from approximately eye/chest height with a natural 70mm portrait-lens perspective, f/2–f/2.8 shallow depth of field, creamy circular bokeh, realistic foreground occlusion, subtle optical softness and authentic DSLR compression. Warm slightly golden-white daylight, muted earthy browns, natural greens and soft skin tones, gently lifted midtones, controlled contrast, slightly warm highlights, deep but detailed shadows, smooth highlight roll-off, restrained saturation, subtle cinematic film character, delicate atmospheric glow and very fine natural film grain. Preserve realistic skin pores, individual hair strands, fabric weave, metal reflections, glass reflections and physically accurate lighting; high dynamic range without an artificial HDR appearance, photorealistic color science, authentic lens rendering, natural textures, professional editorial photography, ultra-detailed 8K realism.
