Identity
With a photo attached: the person in the photo is the subject. Keep their face exactly as it is, with bone structure, eye shape and spacing, nose, lips, jawline, hairline, skin tone and apparent age all unchanged. Only the clothing, pose, setting and light come from this prompt.
Without a photo: create an original person, an Indian woman in her mid-twenties with medium-brown skin and dark hair in a long braid. Invent the face; do not base it on any real or well-known person.
Pose
She stands in three-quarter turn, weight on the back foot, one hand lifting the lehenga slightly, looking back over her shoulder to the camera.
Wardrobe
She wears a Banarasi silk lehenga in magenta with dense gold brocade, a matching dupatta over one shoulder, and a kundan choker.
Setting
An open courtyard with lime-washed walls and a carved wooden door, plants at the edges, everything beyond the subject softly out of focus.
Light
Late morning, bright overcast, even and soft, with a warm bounce from the walls filling the shadow side.
Camera
Shot on a Nikon Z8 at 85mm, f/2.2, ISO 100. Slightly below eye level, full length with headroom, subject centred.
Finish
Photographic, accurate fabric texture, natural skin, restrained colour grade.
Avoid
oversaturated magenta, plastic skin, altered face, warped brocade pattern, duplicated jewellery, extra fingers, cropped feet, text, logo, watermark
