  • Lighting: Soft diffused directional key light with gentle fill shadow transition

  • Skin Rendering: Subtle subsurface scattering, authentic micro-textures, natural pores without plastic airbrushing

  • Background Separation: Shallow depth of field (f/0.95) creating smooth creamy bokeh separation from background elements
