Orange Pink Shadow Portrait Woman
Written for Midjourney. Results and reference-photo support may differ across models.
The complete prompt
Create an ultra-realistic, high-resolution vertical 4:5 portrait photograph based on the uploaded reference image. Use my own uploaded photo as the PRIMARY identity reference and recreate the composition, pose, lighting, hairstyle, outfit, and overall aesthetic of this reference.
🔴 MOST IMPORTANT — EXACT FACE & IDENTITY
My face must remain exactly my face.
Use my uploaded face as the absolute identity source.
Do not copy or recreate the reference woman's facial features.
Preserve my exact face shape, forehead, hairline, eyebrows, eyes, eyelids, nose, lips, cheeks, jawline, chin, ears, skin tone, natural asymmetry, and facial proportions.
Keep my real age and recognizable identity.
No face swapping, beautification, face reshaping, excessive skin smoothing, enlarged eyes, smaller nose, altered lips, V-shaped jaw, or AI beauty filter.
The final result must look like a real photograph of me, not a different person.
📸 COMPOSITION
Create a vertical 4:5 cinematic fashion portrait.
Subject shown from approximately the head to lower torso/hips.
Body positioned slightly toward the right side of the frame.
Subject is turned approximately three-quarter/back-facing toward the camera, with the head turned back over the shoulder.
Face is visible in side/three-quarter profile.
Head slightly tilted downward.
Eyes looking downward with a calm, soft expression.
Elegant, composed fashion-editorial posture.
Camera at approximately shoulder/chest height.
Natural perspective and realistic anatomy.
💇 HAIRSTYLE
Recreate the hairstyle from the reference:
Dark, glossy hair pulled into a large high messy bun.
Bun should have realistic volume and loose strands.
A few soft strands frame the face.
One distinctive long loose curled strand falls down beside the face toward the chest.
Natural flyaway hairs should remain visible.
Hair texture must be realistic, with individual strands rather than a painted appearance.
Adapt the hairstyle naturally to my own hair and face without changing my identity.
👗 OUTFIT
Elegant black long-sleeve dress/top.
Smooth, realistic black fabric with subtle texture.
Fitted but natural silhouette.
Open/back-detail design similar to the reference, revealing a tasteful portion of the upper back.
Add a chunky silver metallic chain necklace around the neck.
Necklace should have realistic metallic reflections.
Keep the outfit sophisticated and fashion-editorial.
💡 LIGHTING
Recreate the dramatic colored studio lighting:
Background illuminated with a gradient transitioning from warm orange/yellow on the left to pink/magenta on the right.
Strong warm orange light falls across the subject's face, neck, and exposed back.
Pink ambient light softly influences the right side of the scene.
High contrast between illuminated skin and the black outfit.
Create a large dark, sharply defined shadow silhouette of the subject on the wall behind her, toward the left.
Shadow must accurately follow the subject's head, bun, shoulders, and body.
Strong directional light source positioned toward the front/right.
Realistic light falloff and physically accurate shadows.
🧱 BACKGROUND
Plain smooth studio wall.
No furniture or distracting objects.
Orange-to-pink gradient lighting projected across the wall.
Slightly darker edges for cinematic depth.
Keep the background clean and minimal.
Add a small subtle four-point sparkle/star highlight near the lower-right corner, matching the reference aesthetic.
