Prompt Architecture & Anatomy
### 📐 Structured Prompt Anatomy
- **Subject Definition**: { "image_type": "photograph", "genre": "indoor lifestyle portrait", "composition": { "framing": "medium close-up", "orientation": "vertical", "subject_position": "center-right, seated at a table", "camera_angle": "slightly above eye-level", "depth_of_field": "shallow to moderate, subject sharply isolated from softly blurred background", "leading_lines": "table edge and ceiling lines subtly guide focus toward the subject", "balance": "asymmetrical, balanced by negative space and interior geometry" }, "subject": { "count": 1, "description": "young woman seated indoors in a modern public space", "pose": "leaning forward with elbow on table, chin resting on hand", "expression": "neutral to contemplative, calm and introspective", "gaze": "directed slightly off-camera to the left", "hair": { "color": "dark brown", "style": "short to medium length, softly wavy with straight fringe/bangs", "finish": "natural texture with light volume" }, "face_details": { "makeup": "natural glam with soft blush, defined brows, subtle lip color", "eyewear": "round metal-frame sunglasses with dark lenses" }, "clothing": { "top": { "type": "knit sweater or rugby-style pullover", "color": "{argument name=\"sweater color\"" default=\""cream base with navy blue panels\""}"", Over-the-shoulder conversational cinematic framing, captured on Fujifilm GFX 100 II with GF 110mm f/2 R LM WR lens, Vibrant cinematic dual-tone lighting (neon cyan key + magenta rim edge), authentic skin micro-textures, true-to-life surface physics, ultra-detailed editorial photography
- **Framing & Shot Type**: Full-body dynamic shot (High angle looking down with structured background framing)
- **Optics & Focal Intent**: 85mm portrait prime 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**: Moody desaturated ambient palette with warm practical accents
- **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.
