## Prompt

```text
A slightly surreal but photorealistic portrait of a seated person in a quiet courtyard or patio, centered in frame, wearing a fitted white long-sleeve turtleneck top with delicate pink floral prints and a printed illustration of a girl on the chest, paired with loose cream floral pants. The person sits on a simple white metal chair and holds a small fluffy poodle-like dog in their lap; the dog has curly off-white fur and distinctly dyed orange ears. Perched on top of the person’s dark hair bun is a black crow or raven, facing left, calm and balanced as if it naturally belongs there. The subject’s pose is still, direct, and formal, creating an odd deadpan family-portrait feeling. Set the scene against a textured off-white stucco wall with exactly 4 notable decorative background elements: 1 brown sun-shaped wall ornament in the upper left, 1 small wall-mounted planter shelf with a small bird figurine and trailing flowers on the left, 1 tall arched window or mural on the right showing a bright blue sky with soft white clouds, and 1 white pedestal planter at lower right filled with long green leaves and exactly 2 pink flamingo ornaments. Include a bit of stone edging and dark greenery at lower left and a brown tiled floor. Lighting is soft natural daylight, slightly overcast, with muted colors, shallow depth of field, and a vintage editorial photography look. Composition should be vertical, full seated figure, straight-on, balanced, and quietly uncanny. Customize the main figure as {person}, the bird as {bird_type}, the dog breed as {dog_type}, the dog ear color as {dog_ear_color}, and the outfit palette as {outfit_colors}.
