## Prompt

```text
Ultra-realistic smartphone selfie portrait, genuinely photographed on a modern mobile phone. A stunning young {ethnicity} fills the frame in an intimate close-up composition, with her face partially cropped so that only the upper two-thirds of her face is visible. Her deep brown eye is the focal point, reflecting soft ambient city lights. Smooth fair skin with natural texture, visible pores, and subtle imperfections for authenticity. Loose {hair_color} falls naturally across her cheek and temple, with a few strands catching the light.

She wears {makeup_style}: soft rosy blush, delicate taupe eyeshadow, lightly defined lashes, natural brows, and hydrated pink lips. Her expression is quiet and thoughtful, as if she has just paused while taking a spontaneous selfie. She gazes slightly past the camera rather than directly into it, creating a candid and cinematic feeling.

The scene is illuminated by cool evening window light combined with warm reflections from nearby streetlights, producing gentle color contrast and realistic shadow transitions across her face. Shot at arm’s length with a smartphone, authentic HDR processing, subtle handheld motion, shallow depth of field, realistic skin rendering, natural hair detail, slight lens softness near the frame edges, faint digital grain, casual everyday atmosphere, unedited iPhone-quality photo, photorealistic, hyper-detailed, no beauty filter, no studio setup, no text, no watermark, no logos, no AI-generated appearance.
