- **Framing & Shot Type**: Medium close-up portrait (Over-the-shoulder conversational framing)
- **Optics & Focal Intent**: 85mm portrait prime lens at f/1.8 shallow depth of field with soft optical falloff
- **Lighting Atmosphere**: Dramatic low-key spotlight with high contrast ratio 4:1
- **Color Grading**: Moody desaturated ambient palette with warm practical accents
- **Model Constraints**: Preserves natural skin texture; avoids oversaturated smoothing.
💡 **How To Customize**: Replace `{SUBJECT}` with your exact character or scene, or switch the Aspect Ratio to `9:16` for mobile reels and wallpaper formats.
