- **Subject Definition**: { "image_generation": { "face": { "preserve_original": true, "reference_match": true }, "photo_style": { "type": "mirror selfie portrait", "camera_angle": "close-up to medium shot, eye-level via mirror reflection", "lighting": "soft warm indoor lighting with low contrast", "mood": "calm, introspective, minimal", "texture": "natural skin texture, soft shadows, subtle grain", "focus": "sharp focus on subject and phone reflection, background softly blurred" }, "subject": { "pose": "standing indoors holding a smartphone up for a mirror selfie, head slightly turned to the side", "expression": "neutral, thoughtful, relaxed", "hair": { "style": "long, straight to slightly wavy, loose", "color": "natural brown" }, "clothing": { "type": "casual indoor wear", "details": "loose dark-colored t-shirt with minimal styling" }, "accessories": { "phone": "smartphone visible in hand with camera interface reflected in mirror" } }, "environment": { "setting": "bedroom or dressing room", "background": "mirror surface, clothing rack, drawers, softly lit interior space", "atmosphere": "quiet, personal, cozy indoor environment" }, "aesthetic": { "style": "natural lifestyle selfie", "features": [ "mirror reflection composition", "soft ambient indoor lighting", "minimalist fashion", "casual everyday setting", "clean neutral color palette" ] } } }, Atmospheric 24mm wide street photography snapshot angle, captured on Leica M11 with Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 ASPH lens, Dramatic stage spotlighting with subtle airborne particulate illumination, authentic skin micro-textures, true-to-life surface physics, ultra-detailed editorial photography
- **Framing & Shot Type**: Full-body dynamic shot (Over-the-shoulder conversational framing)
- **Optics & Focal Intent**: 35mm documentary environmental lens at f/2.8 balanced subject sharpness with soft background bokeh
- **Lighting Atmosphere**: Volumetric golden-hour rim light at 3800K with soft atmospheric haze
- **Color Grading**: Monochrome high-contrast black and white with rich tonal gradients
- **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.
