Prompt Architecture & Anatomy
### 📐 Structured Prompt Anatomy
- **Subject Definition**: { "type": "photograph", "aesthetic": { "mood": "romantic and elegant", "style": "cinematic fine-art photography", "color_contrast": "{argument name=\"color contrast\"" default=\""vibrant red dress contrasted against earthy natural tones\}"", overcast diffused sky, professional grade, sharp focus, high resolution, technically perfect, studio composition, publication-ready, expert framing
- **Framing & Shot Type**: Medium close-up portrait (High angle looking down with structured background framing)
- **Optics & Focal Intent**: 105mm macro detail lens at f/1.4 ultra-shallow depth of field with creamy background separation
- **Lighting Atmosphere**: Dramatic low-key spotlight with high contrast ratio 4:1
- **Color Grading**: Subtle film stock aesthetic with lifted blacks and soft highlight rolloff
- **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.
