Prompt Architecture & Anatomy

### 📐 Structured Prompt Anatomy

- **Subject Definition**: { "image_specification": { "metadata": { "aspect_ratio": "9:16", "style_preset": "Cinematic Realism", "quality_level": "Ultra-High Definition", "render_engine": "Hyperrealistic Path-Tracing" }, "subject_details": { "identity": { "ethnicity": "American", "aesthetic": "Sun-kissed, athletic young woman", "reference_matching": "Maintain strict facial consistency with uploaded reference image" }, "physical_traits": { "skin": "Deep golden tan, visible micro-textures, subtle glow from saltwater and sun", "hair": "Golden blonde, beach-wave texture, wind-swept, voluminous, salt-textured strands", "physique": "Toned, athletic build, defined core" }, "attire": { "garment": "{argument name=\"bikini color\"" default=\""light red\""} strappy bikini top "", master-level composition, intimate and warm, moonlight rim light, award-winning photography aesthetic, museum-quality output, ultra-high resolution, HDR, expert post-processing, technically flawless
- **Framing & Shot Type**: Three-quarter medium shot (Straight-on symmetrical frontal angle)
- **Optics & Focal Intent**: 70-200mm telephoto compressed lens at f/1.8 shallow depth of field with soft optical falloff
- **Lighting Atmosphere**: Warm candlelight ambient illumination at 2400K with gentle highlight rolloff
- **Color Grading**: Clean high-key commercial color grade with vibrant true-to-life 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.
