## Prompt

```text
Ultra-realistic cinematic close-up portrait of a strikingly handsome young man in his early 20s, with thick naturally wavy jet-black hair styled with soft volume and a slightly tousled side sweep, strong well-defined eyebrows, deep dark-brown eyes, a straight sculpted nose, prominent cheekbones, a sharp masculine jawline, and subtle natural stubble. He gazes slightly upward and toward the side with a calm, confident, mysterious expression.
He wears a minimalist dark charcoal crew-neck shirt and a single sleek wireless earbud in one ear. Three-quarter profile, head slightly tilted upward, shoulders relaxed. Dramatic single-source side lighting creates strong highlights across his forehead, cheekbone, nose and jaw while leaving part of his face in deep cinematic shadow. Subtle warm skin tones contrast against a dark navy-black textured studio background.
Sophisticated masculine editorial photography, moody luxury aesthetic, realistic skin texture and pores, natural facial imperfections, detailed hair strands, cinematic contrast, soft atmospheric shadows, shallow depth of field, 85mm portrait lens, f/1.8, professional studio photography, subtle film grain, HDR, ultra-detailed, photorealistic, 8K quality, premium fashion campaign aesthetic, no text, no watermark, no logos, no exaggerated muscles, no plastic-looking skin, no AI-looking face.
