Create a photorealistic autumn fashion photoshoot in a vertical 4:5 composition, based on the provided reference image. Use the reference as the exact source for the subject’s identity, appearance, body proportions, and facial details. Keep her hair color, length, and texture identical to the reference, adapting only its natural arrangement to suit the scene.

Composition and setting:
- Upper part of the frame: a blurred background of bare branches and a dull sky. Show the upper section of a stone fence or balustrade along the edge, in cool, muted tones.
- Middle section, centered: stone steps scattered with yellow autumn leaves. Position the model diagonally along the steps toward the right edge of the frame. Show her in profile, with her head and shoulders in the central area.
- Lower part of the frame: a slightly out-of-focus close view of the steps, with large yellow or red leaves in the foreground creating depth and some blur.
- Left side: show part of the model’s torso in a voluminous ${sweater-color:dark burgundy} oversized sweater with a very chunky, textured knit, a soft high collar, and wide sleeves. Her hair is spread across a step; include a small area of blurred vegetation in the background.
- Right side: show stone steps and denser clusters of leaves. Make the stone texture and sand protruding from the gaps between the slabs clearly visible.

The model reclines on her side along the steps. Her head rests on a step, her hair falls freely, and her face is turned toward the camera with her gaze directed straight into the lens. Give her a calm, slightly thoughtful expression and a gentle smile.

Raise her arms above her head. One hand gently clasps or lightly touches the other, with slightly bent fingers and a soft, graceful gesture. Keep the leading hand and its fingers visible in the upper part of the frame, with relaxed palms. Let the arms serve as a graphic accent within the composition.

Set the scene outdoors in an urban or park setting, with stone steps and a decorative stone fence. It is autumn, with abundant fallen yellow leaves. Use soft, diffused daylight and a warm ochre palette balanced with the cool gray stone surfaces.

Create an intimate, autumnal atmosphere. The contrast between rough stone, soft hair, and fragile leaves should evoke a calm, slightly melancholic mood.

Photographic direction: Phase One XF IQ4 150MP with a Schneider Kreuznach 80mm f/2.8 LS lens; ISO 100, f/3.5, 1/320 s, white balance 5600 K. Position the camera slightly above the model at a gentle diagonal angle. Focus precisely on the nearest eye; keep the face fully discernible, with controlled shallow depth of field and soft, natural bokeh.

Use subtle fill light from a Profoto B10X Plus through a large 3 ft octabox, with a white reflector outside the frame. Aim for wide dynamic range, realistic color reproduction, natural skin with visible pores, sharp eyes and individual eyelashes, detailed strands of hair, and clearly rendered textures of wool, stone, sand, and dry leaves. Use soft light to create depth and volume, with premium magazine aesthetics and a cinematic autumn portrait finish.
