Street Style Greeting Card

Create one vertical 9:16 image: a street-style editorial photograph of the man in the attached photo, in a street look on pale apricot studio seamless under an empty top third, 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, 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: Standing, hair to mid-thigh; camera about 4.5 metres away at his chest height, lens level, 85mm lens. The top third is one flat, even pale apricot tone, bare of texture, marks, gradient, shadow and objects, a step dimmer than his face; he fills the lower two-thirds, 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 or fully out of frame below the crop, each visible hand 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 backpack strap. 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: Pale apricot seamless paper curving into the floor. Nothing else.

WEARING: A bottle-green brushed-suede overshirt, long sleeves, worn open over a plain cream crew-neck tee; stone-coloured cotton cargo trousers; a plain rust canvas backpack slung by one strap on his far shoulder; a short silver chain at the collarbones. His own haircut and his own facial hair exactly as in the photo, only neatly combed.

POSE: Weight on the back leg, hips and shoulders turned together about 20 degrees to camera-left. His left hand, the nearer one, in the front trouser pocket to the knuckles, thumb outside, wrist visible. His right hand, the far one, rests on the backpack strap at chest height, back of the hand to the camera.

GAZE: Face at a clear three-quarter toward camera-left, both eyes visible; eyes on an old friend waving from well off-frame at camera-left, not at the camera. Breezy recognition at the sight of him: lips closed, both corners lifted slightly and evenly; brows lifted a touch.

LIGHT: Key: a tall neutral-white strip softbox at camera-left, about 40 degrees, head height to hip. Fill: a white V-flat at camera-right, one stop under the key, keeping his skin its true tone. The cream tee and silver chain 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: natural uneven skin tone, individual brow hairs, knuckle creases, real brushed suede and cotton canvas; never retouched smooth. White balance neutral to the key, the apricot rich, no cinematic grading.

TEXT: No text, logo or watermark anywhere; the tee, cargo pockets and backpack are plain.

FINAL CHECK: The face is the exact man in the attached photo, every feature matching, lit by this strip softbox - 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.
