# Where Sunlight Learns Her Name

Use the supplied face image as the identity reference, with strong likeness emphasis (150%; `--iw 2`). Create a photorealistic, intimate outdoor portrait of a young adult woman on a peaceful forest boardwalk during a bright late-spring or summer afternoon.

## Setting and atmosphere
Surround her with dense emerald-green woodland: leafy shrubs, tall tree trunks, tangled undergrowth, small rocks, and patches of sunlit vegetation. A reddish-brown wooden walking path curves behind her toward camera-right, bordered by a simple wooden railing that forms subtle leading lines into the forest. Create a serene, fresh, romantic, naturally secluded atmosphere with irregular sunlight filtering through the canopy. Include occasional dust or pollen particles caught in the light, delicate foliage highlights, realistic atmospheric depth, and mild optical imperfections.

## Subject and pose
Show a single woman from approximately mid-torso or chest upward, filling about 70–75% of the vertical frame. Position the camera slightly above chest level with a subtle downward angle. Angle her body roughly 25–35 degrees away from the camera while she naturally turns her head back toward the lens. Keep her shoulders relaxed and arms loosely crossed near the lower frame edge. Place her head near the upper-center/right third. Give her gentle direct eye contact and a restrained, closed-mouth smile; her expression should feel calm and approachable, not exaggerated or posed.

## Face, skin, and makeup
Give her a soft oval-to-heart-shaped face, gently tapered jaw, rounded chin, naturally proportioned nose with a softly defined bridge and tip, and subtle cheek fullness. Use a fair-to-light warm-neutral complexion with natural tonal variation. Preserve realistic pores, fine facial texture, faint blemishes, subtle under-eye texture, natural nasolabial transitions, and slight unevenness; avoid porcelain-like skin. Sunlight should create small luminous highlights on the forehead, nose bridge, cheekbones, and upper lip, with softer shadows contouring the face.

Use refined natural Korean-inspired soft-glam makeup: lightweight satin/dewy foundation with sheer coverage; restrained peach-pink blush across the upper cheeks; subtle warm highlight on the nose and cheekbones; straight-to-softly arched dark-brown eyebrows with visible hairs and feathered inner corners; thin dark-brown or black eyeliner along the upper lash line with a slight outward extension; curled, separated lashes with moderate mascara; a softly emphasized lower lash line; delicate beige-peach/champagne eyeshadow and subtle inner-corner brightness. Give her glossy coral-peach gradient lips, with deeper orange-rose pigment toward the inner lips fading naturally at the edges. No heavy contour or excessive overlining.

## Hair and outfit
Her extremely long, thick dark espresso-brown to near-black hair reaches below the waist. Use a center or slightly off-center part with softly lifted roots. Keep the lengths smooth, transitioning into gentle natural bends lower down. Let large flowing sections frame both sides of her face and cascade over her shoulders and chest. Strong sunlight should create warm chestnut-brown highlights along the crown and camera-left strands. Show numerous individual flyaway hairs catching the backlight as a realistic luminous halo; preserve irregular strands, slight frizz, overlapping hairs, and natural density rather than synthetic perfection.

Dress her in a feminine pale powder-blue/blue-gray fitted summer top or dress with a subtle textured floral or jacquard-like surface. Use a wide, softly gathered neckline with elastic ruching and short puff/cap sleeves gathered into delicate ruffled edges. Include realistic weave, stitching, puckering, fine wrinkles, and compression folds around the neckline, bust, and sleeves. A narrow dusty-pink satin ribbon is threaded or tied vertically at the center front, forming a small bow with two long loose tails.

## Composition and lighting
Use a vertical 4:5 close environmental portrait with intimate social-media framing. Let the upper body dominate roughly 70% of the image while retaining enough forest to establish the location. Place the subject slightly camera-right of center, with lush foliage providing negative space on camera-left. The boardwalk and railing on camera-right recede diagonally into the background. Use foreground hair and shoulder for depth, the boardwalk and vegetation in the middle ground, and layered woodland that gradually softens in the background. Keep a candid natural perspective; show no mirror or phone.

Use bright natural daylight filtered through overhead leaves, with uneven dappled sunlight rather than flat studio illumination. Strong directional sunlight from upper camera-left/back-left should illuminate the hair and create gentle rim light; diffused green canopy fill should soften facial shadows. Use slightly high contrast, occasional bright highlights, authentic shadow patches, soft diffused light, and subtle golden warmth. Avoid artificial studio glow.

## Photography and rendering
Photorealistic Kodak Portra-inspired film rendering, soft fine film grain, restrained pastel color response, texture-rich skin, natural imperfections, flyaway hairs, subtle blemishes, and uneven fabric folds. Aim for premium high-end fine-art portrait photography with realistic high definition, immersive detail, and lifelike rendering.

Use a 50mm environmental-portrait aesthetic, Nikon D850/full-frame DSLR character, ZEISS-style rendering, f/1.8, 1/200s, and ISO 100–200. Keep both eyes and eyelashes sharply focused, with gradual shallow-depth-of-field falloff through the hair and background. Add mild lens-edge chromatic aberration, restrained sharpening, realistic highlight roll-off, and slight organic grain. For a smartphone recreation, use an iPhone 16 Pro Max portrait aesthetic with a 24–26mm equivalent perspective, subtle edge distortion, and restrained computational HDR; avoid artificial sharpening.

## Negative constraints
No plastic or waxy skin, excessive airbrushing, erased pores, heavy contour, extreme makeup, fake eyelashes, unnatural eye enlargement, asymmetrical or malformed eyes, distorted face, warped anatomy, extra fingers, duplicate arms, floating hair, helmet-like hair, artificial hair gloss, excessive HDR, neon greens, oversaturation, blown skin highlights, fake bokeh circles, fantasy forest, volumetric fog, warped railing, distorted boardwalk, CGI, illustration, anime, watermark, or text artifacts.
