Create an extremely photorealistic vertical 9:16 photograph of an adult couple taking a spontaneous nighttime selfie while sitting outdoors beneath a large dark-green patio umbrella. The image must look like an ordinary, unedited smartphone front-camera photo, with direct flash illuminating their faces brightly against an almost completely dark nighttime background.

Man on the left: Preserve the man's exact facial identity from the reference photo, including his short, slightly graying hair, natural eyebrows, brown eyes, subtle stubble, skin texture, facial proportions, and expression lines. He wears a simple black T-shirt and looks directly at the camera with a calm, relaxed expression. One hand is raised beside his face, making a natural peace sign with two fingers.

Woman on the right: Preserve the woman's exact facial identity from the reference photo, including her dark brown skin, long, straight black hair with a subtle center part, natural eyebrows, brown eyes, and recognizable facial features. She has a broad, genuine smile showing her teeth, deep berry-pink lipstick, a small septum nose ring, and subtle earrings. She wears an olive-green short-sleeved shirt and colorful bracelets around her wrist. She leans her head gently against the man's head, conveying warmth, affection, friendship, and natural complicity.

Selfie composition: The woman holds the smartphone at arm's length, with her forearm partially visible in the foreground, creating an authentic front-camera perspective. The man occupies the left side of the frame, while the woman is positioned closely beside him on the right. Their faces are close together and naturally illuminated by the direct flash. The large dark-green umbrella fills the upper portion of the image, with its wooden support pole and structural ribs clearly visible. The background remains almost entirely black, with only minimal environmental details.

Photography style: Casual, spontaneous smartphone photography, direct frontal flash, close-up framing, slightly tilted camera angle, realistic shadows, natural skin tones, authentic flash reflections, subtle imperfections, visible pores, fine facial lines, individual hair strands, and realistic fabric textures. Preserve the natural contrast between the brightly illuminated faces and the dark surroundings. The photograph should feel like a genuine personal snapshot taken during an ordinary evening outdoors, not a professional photoshoot.

Strict identity preservation: Use the supplied reference photographs to maintain the exact facial identities of both individuals. Do not mix their facial features, alter their apparent ages, reshape their faces, or apply artificial beautification. Keep their natural skin texture and recognizable characteristics intact.

Avoid: AI-generated appearance, beauty filters, plastic skin, excessive facial smoothing, altered facial features, artificial eyes, exaggerated smiles, deformed hands or fingers, extra digits, studio lighting, excessive background blur, unrealistic colors, excessive sharpening, text, watermarks, logos, or graphic elements.

Final result: A highly realistic, informal nighttime smartphone selfie with direct flash, natural expressions, faithful facial identities, and an authentic, unedited appearance.
