Photoreal cinematic editorial, vertical 9:16; target 2160 x 3840 pixels, portrait 4K. A monumental black-stone courtyard after rain, with a narrow waterfall descending along a distant wall and one deep-green tree beyond the arch. The subject stands on dry paving; pale silk separates cleanly from the wet architecture.

Wear an ivory silk saree with a fine black border, a tailored black elbow-sleeve blouse and restrained silver earrings. Rest weight on the right leg, left foot slightly forward. Place the left palm at the left waist; hold the free pallu end beside the right thigh in the right hand. Let a gentle breeze lift only that loose end, not the secured drape. Meet the camera with calm confidence, chin neutral and a subtle knowing smile.

70mm, knee-up, camera at chest height with a level lens; face, silk drape and grounded stance remain legible. Large open-sky key from in front, restrained rim on silk edges. Keep both eyes visible and black stone textured, never crushing facial shadows for drama.

Natural skin and fabric texture, believable anatomy and hands. One person; no text, logos, overlays, letterboxing or CGI effects.

Ideal for sharing on platforms celebrating fashion, self-expression, or cultural heritage, it connects with an audience that appreciates authentic beauty and artistic photography.

How to use this prompt

To achieve a stunning result, provide a clear reference photo with the subject's facial likeness as the priority. Expect the final image to highlight the intricate details of the ivory silk saree and the architectural features of the courtyard. Maintain aspect ratio settings for a 9:16 portrait, ensuring legibility of textures. If the likeness feels off, adjust lighting conditions or the angle of the shot slightly for better facial representation.
