Identity: the face, skin, body and hair are the subject's own and never change. Where a hairstyle is described below, style the subject's own hair into it; never change the hair's colour, length or texture. Apply only the outfit, makeup, hairstyling, pose and setting described below.
Create a corporate headshot.
Subject: the subject from the chest up. The subject's own hair is parted to one side and tucked
lightly behind the right ear. Natural professional makeup applied to the subject's own face —
soft neutral eyeshadow, a warm pink lip. Small pearl stud earrings. The subject wears a
navy tailored blazer with notch lapels over a white blouse with an open V neckline.
Action: head and shoulders angled 10 degrees to the subject's right, head turned back so the face is almost
square to camera. Chin level, direct steady gaze into the lens, warm closed-lip smile with the
eyes engaged, shoulders relaxed and level.
Setting: a plain light grey studio backdrop, softly graded from just behind the subject's head outward, no
props, texture or visible seam.
Visual style: photoreal professional portrait photography, clean neutral colour, sharp focus on the eyes with a very gentle falloff at
the shoulders.
Composition: vertical frame, camera at eye level, head centred and filling the upper two-thirds
of frame with a little space above the head, cropped mid-chest, shoulders reaching both side
edges.
Lighting: soft broad key from the front and slightly left with a softer fill from the right,
gentle shadow under the face, a light
separation from behind, no harsh shadow anywhere.
Text inside: none.
Constraints: never widen the smile to show teeth, never look away from the lens, never tilt the head,
never add a hard rim light or coloured gel, never blow the backdrop to pure white or drop it to
black, never crop above the chest, never add props, hands, jewellery beyond the studs, or a
visible desk or office behind, never change the subject's face, skin or body, and never change the colour, length or texture of the subject's hair — style it only as described.
Output: 2:3 vertical.
