Hard-Light Low-Key Portrait

A single 4:5 vertical GRITTY CINEMATIC low-key studio portrait of the person from the uploaded photograph, sculpted by one hard light against near-black.

REALISM (top priority): fully photographic and real — lock facial structure, features, eye shape/colour, hairline, skin tone, marks; faithful and recognisable. The face/body is ONE continuous photograph (no neck seam, no two-tone, face not sharper than the body), RE-LIT by the hard key (true complexion preserved, never lightened), head naturally proportioned.

REPLACE from the upload: any jewelry — minimal.

Scene: a dark studio; a single HARD directional light (slightly above, to one side) carving the face — crisp highlights on the cheekbone/brow, deep readable shadows on the other side, a near-black background; dramatic contrast but the face still readable. A real, grounded outfit (a dark shirt/jacket).

Grade & camera: desaturated cinematic grade with rich blacks; subtle film grain; 85mm look, shallow depth-of-field; the intense "character study" mood. Real skin texture — pores, stubble, every line — faithful complexion.

Output: a gritty cinematic low-key portrait, no text, no border, no watermark. 4:5.
