Modakam Preparation in Morning Light

Using the uploaded photo as the exact face reference, preserve the face exactly: bone structure, jawline, nose shape, eye shape, brow shape, lip shape, skin tone and natural skin texture must match the reference precisely. Do not stylize, slim, lighten, or beautify the face. Generate a photorealistic portrait of this same woman preparing modakam for Vinayaka Chaturthi. Setting: a traditional home kitchen in morning light — a red-oxide floor, steel vessels on a shelf, a stone grinder, a brass plate of grated coconut and jaggery, a heap of rice flour dough, banana leaves, a steamer on the stove with soft steam rising, a barred window casting light across the counter. She sits or stands at the counter shaping a modak between her palms, flour dusting her hands and forearms, a plate of finished modakam beside her. She wears a bright cotton or silk saree with a gold border, elbow-sleeve blouse, gold jhumkas, bangles, a red bindi, jasmine in her plaited hair, the pallu tucked at her waist. Face turned toward the camera, gaze directed straight into the lens, pupils centered, a warm caught-mid-work smile. Lighting: soft warm daylight from the window falling on her face and hands, gentle steam catching the light. Style: photorealistic photograph, rich saturated colour, shallow depth of field, natural skin rendering, sharp detail on the face. 4:5 vertical.

Negative: looking away, side profile, closed eyes, looking down at the hands, plastic skin, over-smoothed, airbrushed, different face, distorted hands, extra fingers, six fingers, modern kitchen appliances, HDR, oversharpened.
