Create a photorealistic, smartphone-style portrait of an adult woman inside a parked car. Use the supplied face image as a strong identity reference, with high image influence (Midjourney image weight 2).

She sits against a textured black leather seat beside a bright side window. The dark charcoal headliner and window pillars form diagonal leading lines; softly blurred greenery and a warm beige building are visible outside. She looks directly into the lens with a composed, subtly flirtatious half-smile, gently tilting her head toward camera-right. One arm is raised above her head, with relaxed fingertips touching her hair. Frame her chest-up, with her occupying roughly 80–90% of the vertical image; place her face near the upper-middle third. Use a slight high-angle tilt, asymmetrical negative space, and a diagonal formed by the raised arm. Keep the face as the primary focal point.

Styling: oversized glossy black rectangular/cat-eye glasses with transparent lenses and realistic window reflections. Long, voluminous espresso-brown hair with subtle warm highlights, a soft center or off-center part, airy curtain pieces, loose layered bends, flyaways, and slight frizz. Soft natural glam makeup with warm peach undertones, visible pores, peach-rose blush, understated contour, subtle highlight, natural brows, warm taupe-brown eyeshadow, delicate mascara, dark-brown irises with small window catchlights, and glossy orange-coral lips. No porcelain smoothing or excessive retouching. Outfit: a fitted black long-sleeve crew-neck top in lightweight jersey, with natural fabric texture, folds, and relaxed cuffs partly covering the hands; tiny minimalist white lettering near the neckline. No prominent jewelry; long almond-shaped nails with pale neutral tips and subtle darker accents.

Lighting and photographic character: diffused daylight enters from the camera-left window at about 45 degrees, with brighter facial highlights and gentle shadow falloff toward camera-right. Mix cool blue-green ambient shadows with warm reflected daylight. Use shallow depth of field and crisp eye focus through the glasses; keep the car interior and exterior softly separated. Aim for an intimate 24–26mm-equivalent smartphone perspective, mild natural edge distortion, and realistic computational HDR. Evoke a Nikon D850 and ZEISS Distagon T* 35mm photographic aesthetic, with f/1.8, 1/200s, and ISO 100–400. For a wider environmental version, use 14–24mm; for natural facial proportions, use 50mm. Use f/8–f/11 only if broad environmental sharpness is desired.

Render as a Kodak-inspired film snapshot: fine grain, muted black levels, slightly warm skin, restrained saturation, soft highlight roll-off, subtle teal-green shadows, moderate contrast, mild halation, gentle vignette, slight edge softness, restrained sharpening, mild chromatic aberration, and authentic lens reflections. Preserve pores, peach fuzz, small blemishes, individual hair strands, fabric fibers, leather grain, fingerprints or reflections on the glasses, irregular clothing folds, uneven illumination, and naturally imperfect shadows. Add only extremely subtle airborne dust and window haze, not artificial fog. Mood: cozy, spontaneous, confident, dreamy, and flirtatious; cool charcoal interior against warm skin and brown hair.

Ensure believable five-finger anatomy, natural wrist articulation, realistic eyeglass geometry and refraction, correct eyes behind the lenses, physically plausible shadows, realistic window reflections, and natural depth transitions. Avoid childlike or age-ambiguous appearance, plastic or waxy skin, beauty-filter smoothing, malformed or duplicated hands and limbs, fused or missing fingers, warped glasses, opaque lenses, crossed eyes, distorted facial features, artificial-looking hair, excessive cleavage emphasis, impossible anatomy, fake HDR, oversaturation, excessive bokeh or sharpening, CGI appearance, random text, watermark, or logo artifacts.

Vertical aspect ratio 2:3. For Midjourney, use: --ar 2:3 --iw 2 --stylize 150 --v 6 --q 2.
