## Prompt

```text
Create a dramatic fine-art portrait of a {subject} in strict side profile facing right, shown from head to upper torso against a deep black studio background. Her face, neck, shoulder, and chest are mostly in near-black silhouette with only razor-thin warm rim highlights defining the nose, lips, jawline, throat, collarbone, and shoulder. The main visual focus is a huge mass of {hair_color} hair blown powerfully to the left and curling around the face, glowing like illuminated strands of fire. Use extreme backlighting from behind the head and hair, creating a bright white-hot golden halo at the edge of the face and dense orange light through the flowing hair. The hair should contain countless long, distinct, ribbon-like strands and curls, sweeping horizontally across the frame with motion and energy. Composition is vertical portrait, close crop, face centered slightly right, hair filling the left half and wrapping around the right edge. Style is cinematic high-contrast photography, low-key lighting, warm amber and orange palette, glossy skin rim light, shallow depth of field, ultra-detailed hair texture, elegant sensual mood, no clothing details emphasized, no text, no accessories, no watermark.
