Master Prompt Template
A series of warm, cinematic autumn portraits featuring a {argument name="subject" default="woman with wavy, shoulder-length brown hair"}, a soft smile, and a gentle expression. She is wearing a {argument name="outfit" default="vibrant, emerald-green long-sleeved knit sweater"} paired with dark blue jeans. The setting is a {argument name="location" default="serene park during golden hour"}, with the background beautifully blurred into a soft bokeh of rich orange, yellow, and brown autumn foliage. In some compositions, she interacts gracefully with large, moss-covered tree trunks—leaning against them, touching the textured bark, or resting at the base of a tree surrounded by fallen autumn leaves while holding a multi-colored leaf. Other shots include tight close-ups, focusing on her resting her chin on her hands, showcasing a subtle gold ring on her finger. The lighting is soft and directional, creating a warm glow around her hair and casting a cozy, peaceful mood throughout the entire scene, 85mm telephoto lens compression with creamy background bokeh, captured on Sony A7R V paired with FE 85mm f/1.4 GM lens, Rembrandt 3-point studio lighting with 45° key light and soft fill bounce, authentic skin micro-textures, true-to-life surface physics, ultra-detailed editorial photography, Profile side angle with rim contour, captured on 24mm wide-angle perspective lens, Subtle high-key studio softbox with delicate catchlights in eyes, natural surface physics, 8K ultra-detailed editorial photography --ar 9:16 --v 6.1 --style raw

- **Framing & Shot Type**: Tight headshot portrait (Profile side angle with rim contour)
- **Optics & Focal Intent**: 24mm wide-angle perspective lens at f/4.0 clean editorial sharpness across subject features
- **Lighting Atmosphere**: Subtle high-key studio softbox with delicate catchlights in eyes
- **Color Grading**: Warm and cool cinematic contrast with natural skin tones
- **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.
