- **Framing & Shot Type**: High-angle overhead view (Eye-level direct angle with natural perspective)
- **Optics & Focal Intent**: 50mm natural focal length lens at f/1.4 ultra-shallow depth of field with creamy background separation
- **Lighting Atmosphere**: Soft overcast diffused daylight through a large north-facing window
- **Color Grading**: Golden-hour amber and cyan complementary color harmony
- **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.
