## Prompt

```text
Create an ultra-realistic cinematic 8K fashion portrait of a {subject} in a {setting}. She is seated on a wide concrete staircase outside a modern building with clean geometric lines and soft beige stone walls. Her pose is effortlessly elegant and natural: one leg extended slightly forward while the other is bent, with her elbow resting casually on her raised knee. One hand gently brushes a strand of hair behind her ear while the other rests loosely on her lap, creating a relaxed editorial feel. She has long, silky dark brown hair cascading in soft waves over her shoulders, illuminated by warm sunlight that enhances its texture and natural shine. Her expression is calm, self-assured, and thoughtful, with a subtle smile and direct eye contact with the camera. Her makeup is refined and natural, featuring luminous skin, softly defined eyes, feathered brows, and a muted rose lip color. She is wearing a {outfit}, paired with clean white sneakers. Minimalist silver jewelry completes the look, including delicate hoop earrings, a slim bracelet, and a simple ring. Golden hour sunlight streams from the side, casting beautiful directional light across her face and clothing while creating soft shadows that add depth and dimension. The architectural background remains gently out of focus with creamy bokeh, emphasizing the subject while preserving the sense of place. Captured on a Canon EOS R5 with an 85mm f/1.8 lens, shallow depth of field, ultra-sharp focus on the eyes, realistic skin texture, natural color grading, cinematic contrast, subtle film grain, rich tonal range, premium editorial photography, luxury fashion campaign quality, photorealistic lighting, highly detailed fabric textures, individual hair strands visible, authentic proportions, timeless and elegant atmosphere, masterpiece-quality 8K image.
