## Prompt

```text
Photorealistic cinematic golden-hour portrait of a {subject}, wearing a {outfit}, standing casually beside a large glass window on a {setting}, looking down at and using his smartphone with a quiet, introspective expression. Warm low-angle sunlight streams directly down the street behind him, creating strong golden rim light around his hair and shoulders, dramatic long shadows, glowing reflections on the wet pavement, soft lens flare and atmospheric haze. His reflection is clearly visible in the glass beside him, creating a beautiful mirrored composition. Urban buildings recede into the distance with the setting sun glowing between them, warm amber and deep brown tones, subtle film grain, natural skin texture, realistic fabric detail, shallow depth of field, creamy cinematic bokeh, soft highlight bloom, moody editorial photography, authentic candid moment, shot on a full-frame camera, 50mm lens, f/1.8, high dynamic range, realistic lighting, cinematic color grading, ultra-detailed, photorealistic, vertical 4:5 composition.
