FACE MATCH IS THE TOP PRIORITY. This is the exact woman in the attached reference photo - not a lookalike. Copy the reference face feature by feature - hairline, hair, brows, eye shape and spacing, nose, lips, jawline, cheek structure, skin tone - every proportion identical, so anyone who knows her recognises her instantly; do not beautify, slim or genericise. From the reference keep only the face and hair.

An ultra-real dark studio portrait: a black void with one soft amber pool glowing behind her shoulder line.

EYES: she looks directly down the barrel of the lens, both pupils centred and aimed straight at the camera, her gaze meeting the viewer's eye. Head straight on, chin level, face square to the camera. Both eyes fully open, clearly visible, evenly lit, each carrying a distinct catchlight. She is not looking off to the side, not looking past the camera, not looking down.

OUTFIT: a midnight-black raw silk kurta with a visible slubbed weave that catches the amber light along the shoulder and sleeve, a structured mandarin collar standing clean at the throat, a narrow tonal placket with small covered buttons, sharply tailored through the shoulder so the garment holds its own shape. The fabric reads rich and expensive with clear texture and deep folds, never flat, never shiny, never cheap. Jewellery minimal: one small plain gold stud in each ear, nothing else.

Expression: patient power - the look of a woman who has already won the argument - mouth even with the faintest closed curve.

One warm key from high camera-left falls across the face at a classic angle, face brightest with clear catchlights, the silk's weave and the collar's structure holding clean dark folds with a soft amber rim along her shoulder and hair. Hands out of frame below the chest-up crop. True skin and raw silk texture, a real photograph. 85mm, chest-up, vertical 4:5. Only this one person. No text anywhere.

LIGHT LAW: the face is lit only by this scene's own light - same direction, same colour temperature, same softness, with shadows falling exactly as the environment dictates - never a pasted studio face.

FINAL CHECK: compare the face against the attached reference - the identity must match exactly; if any feature differs from the reference, it is wrong. Her eyes must be looking straight into the camera.

How to use this prompt

Provide a clear reference photo showcasing the woman's face and hair to ensure accurate facial features are captured. Emphasize the desired lighting condition and the color palette specific to the amber glow. Expect a portrait primarily featuring the subject's face and shoulders in a vertical 4:5 aspect ratio. If the likeness is incorrect, revisit the comparison against the reference photo and refine the details until they match perfectly.
