Create an ultra-photorealistic, premium luxury editorial portrait using ${reference-images} as the absolute identity reference for every depicted person. Preserve each person's recognizable facial identity, facial proportions, skin tone, hairstyle, and distinctive features. Do not merge, swap, or alter identities.
**ADAPTIVE SUBJECT RULE:** Naturally adapt to the reference images. If one person is provided, create a solo portrait. If two people are provided, create an intimate couple portrait featuring both individuals with equal attention to their identities. The concept must work equally well for masculine, feminine, and androgynous appearances.
**FRAMING & COMPOSITION:** Vertical 3:4 composition, intimate close-up to chest-up portrait. For a solo subject, frame from the top of the head to the chest. For a couple, include both heads, shoulders, and upper chests in a balanced, close composition, with both faces clearly visible, separated, and unobstructed. Use subtle asymmetry, natural head tilts, relaxed shoulders, and elegant overlapping silhouettes. Keep the faces large and prominent, occupying most of the frame. The composition should feel intimate, sophisticated, and visually captivating.
**POSE & EXPRESSION:** Calm, magnetic, effortlessly confident expressions. Slightly tousled, naturally messy hair with loose strands framing the face. For solo portraits, one hand may rest gently against the temple or cheek. For couples, create natural closeness through a gentle lean toward each other, a relaxed touch on the shoulder, or temples subtly approaching one another. Keep the pose elegant, candid, and emotionally engaging rather than stiff or exaggerated.
**WARDROBE:** Refined champagne, ivory, warm taupe, or muted bronze satin and silk textures. Relaxed open collars and minimalist luxury styling. Adapt wardrobe naturally to each person's gender expression. For couples, coordinate the tones without making the outfits identical. Rich satin reflections should catch the golden light beautifully. No visible logos or distracting accessories.
**SIGNATURE LIGHTING — INTENSE GOLDEN LUMINOSITY:** Dramatic, directional antique-gold lighting with luminous champagne highlights, sculptural facial shadows, and rich bronze reflections. Strong golden rim lighting illuminates individual hair strands and outlines the subjects with a beautiful molten-gold glow. Add abundant shimmering gold dust, glittering light particles, sparkling reflections, luminous golden pinpoints, and brilliant champagne-gold glints throughout the entire scene. Scatter delicate golden caustic patterns across selected areas of the hair, cheeks, shoulders, and satin clothing. Introduce occasional crystal-generated rainbow refractions as tiny accents, never overpowering the gold palette. The golden illumination must feel radiant, dimensional, and luxurious, with clearly visible sparkles while preserving natural skin tones and facial details.
**MAXIMUM GOLD SPARKLE EFFECT — SIGNATURE VISUAL:** Fill the composition with hundreds of visible golden particles, shimmering gold dust, glittering champagne flecks, and luminous floating specks of different sizes. Create a rich, three-dimensional field of sparkling particles extending from the foreground to the background. Include large, softly blurred golden bokeh orbs close to the lens, medium-sized glittering highlights around the subjects, and countless tiny, sharply luminous gold particles scattered throughout the scene. Add occasional brilliant star-like glints and tiny metallic reflections that catch the light like finely crushed gold. Some particles should appear to float beside the face and hair, while others shimmer around the shoulders and clothing. Create the impression of suspended liquid gold dust gently swirling through the air. The sparkle density must be high and immediately noticeable at first glance. Gold glitter and luminous particles should be a defining feature of the image, not a barely visible decorative detail. Keep the eyes, facial features, and expressions unobstructed.
**BACKGROUND & ATMOSPHERE:** A deep bronze-black, dark espresso, and antique-gold environment filled with dense golden glitter, sparkling champagne bokeh, floating metallic dust, and layered points of light. The entire background should shimmer with hundreds of tiny golden highlights and larger defocused golden orbs. Introduce crystal-like reflective elements near the frame edges to create additional luminous reflections and optical depth. Include a few brighter golden glints in the foreground, producing a beautiful sense of dimensionality and immersion. The particles should extend naturally around the silhouettes without hiding the subjects. The result should resemble a spectacular luxury fragrance campaign photographed in a dark studio filled with illuminated gold dust.
**COLOR PALETTE & GRADING:** Muted antique gold, champagne gold, brushed bronze, deep espresso, warm charcoal, and rich obsidian black. Low-to-moderate overall saturation with brilliant localized golden highlights. Maintain elegant tonal separation, creamy champagne reflections, rich dark shadows, subtle filmic contrast, and sophisticated cinematic depth. Gold should appear luminous and metallic rather than yellow-orange. Skin tones must remain realistic, balanced, and naturally warm, never excessively red, orange, or yellow. Preserve the understated luxury aesthetic despite the abundance of sparkling particles.
**SKIN & DETAIL:** Authentic skin texture, realistic pores, natural facial microtexture, detailed eyes and eyelashes, individual hair strands, and lifelike fabric reflections. Premium professional retouching without plastic skin, excessive smoothing, artificial freckles, or exaggerated blemishes. Preserve realistic anatomy and the distinctive features of every person.
**CAMERA & QUALITY:** Professional full-frame editorial photography, 85mm portrait lens aesthetic, approximately f/2, precise eye focus, natural facial perspective, beautiful optical bokeh, high dynamic range, subtle film grain, realistic light scattering, and exceptional photorealistic detail. Use shallow depth of field to render foreground sparkles as large, luminous bokeh while retaining crisp facial details. The image must look like an actual high-end photograph, not a digital painting or 3D render.
**FINAL ART DIRECTION:** Quiet luxury meets spectacular golden radiance. A sophisticated, mysterious, captivating portrait with an abundance of glittering gold particles, luminous champagne bokeh, molten-gold reflections, and rich cinematic depth. The face remains the emotional centerpiece, while the entire scene is enveloped in a magical yet photorealistic golden sparkle atmosphere. Elegant, premium, visually dazzling, and instantly eye-catching.
**NEGATIVE CONSTRAINTS:** No identity drift, no merged faces, no duplicated people, no missing couple partner, no extra subjects, no distorted anatomy, no extra fingers, no obstructed eyes, no extreme head cropping, no distant framing, no excessive red or orange color cast, no oversaturated yellow, no weak or barely visible sparkles, no sparse particle effects, no flat lighting, no plastic skin, no artificial beauty filters, no cluttered background, no text, no watermark.
