## Prompt

```text
Create a dramatic studio portrait of {subject} facing straight toward the camera, framed from upper chest to just above the head against a nearly black background. The subject wears {shirt_color} polo shirt with a collar and two visible buttons, shoulders broad and centered, posture upright and still. Use cinematic low-key lighting with strong colored rim lights: cool cyan-blue light along the left side of the head, ear, neck, and shoulder, and warm orange light along the right side, ear, neck, and shoulder, creating a high-contrast moody look. Place one large opaque square censor block directly over the center of the face, covering the forehead, eyes, nose, mouth, and most facial features while leaving the top of the bald head, ears, beard edge, neck, shirt, and shoulders visible; the square should have a muted dark gray-to-warm brown gradient matching the surrounding lighting. Make the image vertical, photorealistic, sharp, with subtle skin texture and fabric detail, no text, no watermark, no additional objects.
```
