## Prompt

```text
A moody late-night mirror selfie in a {location} with a glowing city skyline beyond the windows. A young woman with long, slightly disheveled black hair leans over a marble sink, loose strands half-covering one eye. Shot through a smudged, water-spotted mirror that captures raw imperfections for an authentic feel. A harsh direct flash bursts into the frame, producing overexposed highlights, lens flare, and that unmistakable early-2000s compact camera nostalgia.
The marble counter is scattered with luxury skincare, cosmetics, jewelry, and a phone, all adding an intimate editorial mood. Neon-lit skyscrapers and hotel windows glow in the mirror's background reflections, evoking an urban nightlife atmosphere. Fair skin tones contrast against dark clothing and black hair. The scene feels candid, effortlessly cool, and deeply intimate.
Style: Y2K flash photography, candid mirror selfie, Korean editorial aesthetic, indie sleaze, hotel bathroom, luxury lifestyle, cinematic nightlife, disposable camera look, film grain, flash burn, realistic skin texture, shallow depth of field, authentic imperfections, Pinterest-viral mood, high-fashion casual energy, raw unfiltered photography.
Camera: direct flash, compact digital camera, 35mm equivalent, harsh lighting, slight motion blur, visible noise, natural color grading, vertical composition, ultra-realistic, high detail.
