✦ Copyable Prompt

A stylish man sitting casually at an outdoor urban café table. He is seated facing slightly toward the camera while his upper body is subtly turned to one side. His head is turned toward the side, looking away from the camera with a calm, confident and thoughtful expression. **Match the reference pose exactly:** same relaxed seated posture, same body angle, same shoulder position, same arm positioning, same hand placement, same hand gestures, same coffee-cup position, same torso orientation, same head direction and the same overall body composition. One hand rests naturally near the table/chair area while the other hand holds a **clearly visible white takeaway coffee cup** naturally in front of the torso, positioned exactly like the reference. Add a subtle premium wristwatch naturally visible on the wrist. ### CLOTHING The subject wears a sophisticated **dark charcoal/black textured overcoat** with a raised/wide collar, layered over a clean **off-white/cream knitted crew-neck sweater**. A long **muted beige/taupe wool scarf** is naturally wrapped/draped around the neck and hangs down both sides of the coat. Add stylish **dark rectangular eyeglasses**, naturally fitted to the face. All clothing must look realistic, premium and naturally fitted, with accurate fabric behavior, realistic folds, stitching, wool texture, knitted patterns and subtle material variations. Clothing arrangement must closely match the reference composition. ### HAIR & FACIAL DETAILS Preserve the subject's hairstyle and overall appearance from the reference while keeping the hair naturally styled, thick and slightly voluminous. Show realistic individual hair strands, subtle texture, natural flyaway hairs and a soft dimensional finish. **Do not change the person's identity.** Preserve natural facial hair/beard details exactly according to the reference image if present. ### BACKGROUND Recreate the **same sophisticated European/modern urban café environment and visual atmosphere** as the reference. Behind the subject, show a large urban building façade with tall windows and neutral gray architectural details. Include softly blurred pedestrians, street elements and parked/moving cars in the background. The background should feel like a real, naturally busy city street but remain strongly out of focus through a shallow depth of field. Maintain the same background perspective, visual depth, atmosphere, architectural style, street positioning and overall composition as closely as possible to the reference. ### COMPOSITION & CAMERA **Vertical 4:5 portrait composition.** Medium portrait shot from approximately chest/waist camera height, showing the subject from around mid-thigh/waist upward with the café table visible in the foreground. Keep the subject centered slightly toward the middle of the frame. Match the reference camera distance, perspective, crop, framing, headroom, subject scale and viewing angle as closely as possible. Use a realistic professional **full-frame camera aesthetic with an 85mm portrait lens look**, natural lens compression and cinematic optical depth of field. ### LIGHTING Soft natural **overcast daylight** with subtle warm-neutral cinematic tones. Gentle highlights on the face and hair, realistic soft shadows, natural ambient city light and physically accurate reflections. No harsh artificial lighting, no excessive glow and no dramatic fake lighting. Create the atmosphere of a premium **luxury fashion editorial campaign photographed naturally on a real city street**. ### IMAGE QUALITY Ultra-photorealistic, high-end fashion editorial photography, cinematic color grading, realistic skin pores and natural skin texture, highly detailed individual hair strands, realistic fabric weave, detailed coat and scarf texture, physically accurate lighting, natural depth of field, beautiful optical bokeh, crisp subject separation, professional full-frame camera look, 85mm portrait lens aesthetic, realistic lens compression, subtle natural film grain, sophisticated muted color palette, HDR-level dynamic range, extremely clean micro-details, premium commercial photography quality, 8K-quality appearance. ### STRICT REFERENCE MATCH **Identity and face must match the reference person exactly.** Keep: * SAME person / facial identity * SAME facial structure and proportions * SAME hairstyle character * SAME beard/facial-hair details if present * SAME relaxed seated pose * SAME body orientation * SAME arm positioning * SAME hand placement * SAME coffee cup position * SAME clothing arrangement * SAME camera angle * SAME camera distance * SAME crop and framing * SAME headroom * SAME background perspective * SAME café/city-street atmosphere * SAME overall visual composition Do not introduce a different person, different pose, different hand position, different cup placement, different camera perspective or unrelated background. Do not excessively beautify the face. Do not create plastic skin, artificial facial symmetry, exaggerated jawline, unrealistic eyes, over-smoothed skin, CGI appearance or cartoon-like details. The final image must look like a **real professionally photographed luxury street-fashion campaign featuring the exact same person from the reference**, with authentic skin, natural proportions, realistic clothing, physically accurate lighting and genuine photographic depth. **Aspect Ratio: 4:5**

A Mediterranean Morning

A phptprealistic, cinematic photograph of a man enjoying an espresso at an outdoor cafe on a sun-drenched street in a Tuscan hill town. He has a confident, pensive expression, wearing dark, classic Wayfarer-style sunglasses. The man is dressed in a loose-fitting, unbuttoned cream linen button-down shirt over a white undershirt, paired with loose-fitting white linen trousers. He is seated comfortably in a traditional wooden-frame café chair with a woven rattan seat, leaning back with a natural posture, his right arm resting on the round, white marble-topped café table. On the table, there is a small white ceramic espresso cup with a saucer and a glass of water with a slice of lemon. A glass vase with small white and purple wildflowers (daisies and wild asters) adds a touch of nature. The man is looking out towards the right of the frame. The setting is an old stone-walled café with a warm, aged patina. To the left, a traditional wooden-framed blackboard menu hangs on the wall, listing in white chalk. The street is narrow, with old stone buildings cascading down the hill in the background under a clear, bright vivid blue sky with a few distant birds in flight. The afternoon sunlight is strong and directional, coming from the right, casting defined, warm shadows and highlighting the texture of the linen fabric and the stone architecture. The shot is at eye level, a medium shot that captures the man, table, and setting details. The background is softly blurred with a shallow depth of field (bokeh). The color temperature is warm and inviting, with a rich, filmic quality. The camera used is a full-frame digital camera with a 50mm f/1.8 lens, ultra sharp skin and hair texture. The tone is relaxed, and evocative of a European vacation. Aspect ratio 4:5.
