Same person as the attached reference: keep his exact face - hairline, hair, brows, eyes, nose, lips, jawline, beard, skin tone - unchanged and unmistakable; ignore the reference photo's lighting, clothing and background.

A turquoise wall, open daylight from the front. White oxford shirt, collar open, no tie. His right hand rolls the left sleeve up the forearm mid-fold, both hands' visible fingers countable, eyes locked on the lens the whole time, brows level, mouth flat - the universal sign of about-to-sort-this-out. A steel watch waits on the rolled side. Face brightest, clear catchlights. True photograph, real skin, real cotton weave. 50mm, waist-up, vertical 3:4. No text anywhere.

How to use this prompt

To effectively create this portrait, supply a reference image of the subject to ensure accuracy in facial features. Set the backdrop to turquoise and adjust lighting for a bright, daylight effect. Ensure the subject's clothing reflects a casual look, such as a white oxford shirt, and position them front-facing to achieve eye contact with the lens. The aspect ratio should be a vertical 3:4, capturing the waist-up view, focusing on natural skin textures and cotton fabric details.
