## Prompt

```text
Create a minimalist black and white luxury fashion editorial portrait featuring a {subject} in a professional photography studio. He stands in a relaxed three quarter pose with his body angled slightly to the right while turning his head back toward the left, looking downward with a calm, thoughtful expression. His left hand rests naturally inside his trouser pocket while his right hand lightly holds the lapel of his blazer near the chest, creating an effortless editorial pose.
The subject has thick, slightly wavy dark hair styled with natural volume and loose strands falling across the forehead. Strong jawline, defined cheekbones, straight nose, full lips, and expressive eyebrows. Clean skin texture with realistic pores and subtle facial shadows.
He wears an {clothing} over a crisp white dress shirt with the top two buttons left open. The shirt is slightly relaxed, tucked neatly into high waisted black tailored trousers. No tie, no accessories, no jewelry.
Behind him, create a large translucent profile shadow projected onto the {background_style}. The shadow should show his face in side profile looking left, softly blurred with reduced opacity around 30 to 40 percent. It should feel artistic and intentional rather than a normal shadow, occupying almost half of the background.
Lighting is soft diffused studio light from the front right, creating smooth grayscale transitions and subtle facial contours. Minimal contrast with rich tonal depth. Background remains clean and uncluttered.
Shot on an 85mm lens at eye level, waist up composition, f/2.8, ISO 100, ultra realistic monochrome photography, matte finish, subtle Ilford HP5 film grain, luxury magazine editorial, premium fashion campaign, timeless aesthetic, exceptional fabric texture, highly detailed skin, natural wrinkles in clothing, museum quality fine art portrait.
Negative Prompt: Color, smile, text, watermark, logo, extra people, extra limbs, distorted anatomy, oversharpening, AI artifacts, cluttered background, exaggerated contrast, cartoon, illustration, low quality.
