Candid environmental portrait of [SUBJECT DESCRIPTION — AGE, HAIR, CLOTHING], photographed outdoors at golden hour, roughly twenty minutes before sunset. The low sun sits behind the subject and to camera left, creating a warm rim light along the hair and shoulders; the face is lit by soft bounced fill so no hard shadows cross the eyes. Setting: [LOCATION, E.G. A QUIET CITY STREET, A WHEAT FIELD, A FISHING HARBOR], rendered as soft out-of-focus bokeh behind the subject. Shot on a full-frame camera with an 85mm lens at f/1.8, eye level, subject placed on the left third of the frame, looking slightly off camera with a relaxed, unposed expression. Natural skin texture with visible pores — no airbrushing, no beauty-filter smoothing. Warm amber color grade, gentle contrast, faint film grain. Vertical 4:5 aspect ratio. Avoid: direct on-camera flash, studio backdrop, oversaturated orange skin tones, motion blur, harsh midday shadows.
