Turmeric-Gold Fashion Editorial

Create one vertical 9:16 image: a fashion-editorial studio photograph of the man in the attached photo in festive turmeric-gold silk on electric violet, designed as a greeting-card image.

FACE MATCH - TOP PRIORITY: The attached photo is the identity source only. He is that exact man, instantly recognisable, never a lookalike: same hairline and parting, hair colour and texture, brows, eye shape and spacing, nose, lips, jawline, chin, cheek width, skin tone, any mole, freckle, scar or dimple in its exact place, his own facial hair, and every facial proportion. Never beautify, slim, smooth, age or restyle the face. Take nothing else from the photo - not its light, expression, clothes, pose or background.

FRAME: Waist-up, hair to waist, filling the lower half; camera 2.5 metres away at chest height, 85mm lens. The top half is one flat, even violet, bare of any mark, gradient, shadow or object, empty for words and a step dimmer than his face; clear space above his hair.

BODY: One real adult with two arms and two hands, the body continuing naturally below the frame; each hand fully in frame at waist height, with four fingers and a thumb, its fingers lying naturally side by side; every limb unbroken from the shoulder, doing only what is described, never merging into the block. Adult proportion: head in true scale, shoulders about three head-widths wide, a real neck, hands as long as the face - never a big head on a small body.

SCENE: A seamless sweep of that violet; a solid matte deep-aubergine block, its flat top at his waist. Nothing else.

WEARING: A turmeric-gold raw-silk kurta, full sleeves, mandarin collar; an opaque ivory angavastram with a narrow gold zari border hangs from his left shoulder down the left of his chest to his waist, both arms free of it from sleeve to fingertips, never over the head. The only jewellery is a thin gold chain bracelet on his right wrist; forehead, parting and nose bare. His own haircut and his own facial hair exactly as in the photo, only neatly combed.

POSE: He stands behind the block, shoulders square to the lens, elbows soft. Both palms lie flat on the block top, one in front of each hip, shoulder-width apart, a clear hand-width above the bottom frame edge.

GAZE: Face a clear three-quarter toward camera-right, never further, both eyes visible; eyes on a studio door opening off-frame at camera-right, not at the camera. Proud calm, as if his family just walked in: lips closed, both corners lifted very slightly and evenly; eyes soft.

LIGHT: Key: a large neutral-white octabox high at camera-right. Fill: a white V-flat at camera-left, one stop under, keeping his skin its true tone, never tinted violet. A thin warm rim edges his hair and shoulders. Kurta, angavastram and gold a step dimmer than his face. His face takes the key like the rest of him: the brightest, sharpest thing in frame, a catchlight in each eye.

PHOTOGRAPH: A true photograph on a real camera, not an illustration or 3D render: visible pores, individual hair strands, real raw-silk slub and gold zari; never retouched smooth. White balance neutral to the key, the violet rich, no cinematic grading.

TEXT: No text, logo or watermark anywhere; the band and block are plain, and the zari is tiny temple-arch shapes, no letters.

FINAL CHECK: The face is the exact man in the attached photo, every feature matching, lit by this octabox - if any feature differs, it is wrong. One intact adult, arms and hands exactly as described, head true to scale. Vertical 9:16, no text.
