  "portrait_prompt": {
    "subject": {
      "description": "Based on <User Portrait>, an extreme close-up of a young woman's face filling the frame — eyes looking directly into camera with a calm, neutral, almost confrontational gaze. No smile. Lips naturally closed, slightly full. Expression is pure stillness — 'I see you seeing me.' The face is so close you can see iris texture, individual eyelash roots, and subtle skin pores.",
      "features": {
        "hair": "Medium-length hair with roots transitioning to light ash-blonde at the tips (peek-a-boo / underlayer color technique), straight and slightly messy, falling from both sides of the headpiece past the jawline. Bangs hidden under the headpiece.",
        "eyes": "Gray-green / olive hazel irises with visible iris striations and fiber texture, clear and luminous. Natural long lashes (not overly dramatic). No colored contacts — these are natural-looking eyes. Subtle dark eyeliner on upper lash line only. Eyes are THE focal point of the entire image.",
        "expression": "Neutral to micro-cool — lips naturally closed, jaw relaxed, no tension but no warmth either. The expression is editorial-model 'blank canvas' — emotions projected by the viewer, not performed by the subject. Nose tip and cheeks have faint natural pinkness (blood flush, not blush makeup).",
        "skin": "Porcelain cool-pink complexion, near-bare makeup — no visible foundation texture, but skin has real texture (fine pores visible). Matte finish with subtle natural specular highlights on nose bridge, brow bone, and cupid's bow. NOT airbrushed-smooth — this is 'perfect but real' skin."
      },
      "pose": "Based on user-uploaded pose reference — static, head slightly tilted 5 degrees to the right, chin level (not raised, not lowered), shoulders barely visible at bottom crop. No hand gesture — face is everything."
    },
    "attire": {
      "type": "Minimalist white + red editorial styling — newspaper-print headpiece and red ribbon accessories",
      "details": [
        "Newspaper / text-print fabric folded headpiece covering forehead to hairline — white base with black text and red highlight word 'models', worn like a folded bandana or baker boy cap, text appears mirrored/reversed",
        "Thin red satin ribbon choker (5mm width) tied snugly around neck",
        "White strapless / tube top (only collarbone area visible due to crop), with a single red satin ribbon bow at center chest",
        "Red text 'DEFINITION' printed/stamped on right collarbone area — like a temporary tattoo or rubber stamp mark, appears reversed/mirrored",
        "Color palette strictly limited to WHITE + TRUE RED only — high design discipline"
      ],
      "color": "White and true red (no other colors except natural skin tones)"
    },
    "composition": {
      "shot_type": "Extreme Close-up (ECU) — face fills 70%+ of frame",
      "focal_length": "90-105mm (macro-portrait range — zero perspective distortion, intimate distance)",
      "aperture": "f/4-5.6 (entire face in sharp focus from nose tip to ears)",
      "camera_angle": "Dead-on eye level — lens axis perfectly horizontal, aligned with subject's eye line",
      "camera_height": "Exact eye level — confrontational, equal-power framing",
      "framing": "Subject offset to RIGHT 2/3 of frame. Left 1/3 is pure white negative space (classic editorial magazine layout — space for text/logo). Headpiece cropped at top (only folded brim visible). Bottom crop at upper chest/collarbone. Face centered vertically. Eye line at upper third horizontal. Extremely tight crop — 'uncomfortable intimacy' level of close.",
      "aspect_ratio": "1:1"
    },
    "lighting": {
      "type": "Beauty lighting — large softbox or beauty dish with diffusion from camera-left, white fill reflector from camera-right. Single-source dominant setup.",
      "direction": "Key light from left (10 o'clock position), 15 degrees above eye level. Soft wraparound with very subtle shadow transition on right side of face (1/4 stop darker, not dramatic). White reflector fill from right prevents shadow detail loss.",
      "mood": "Clinical precision meets gentle flattery — the light says 'I will show every detail of your skin but make it look beautiful.' Soft specular highlights on nose bridge, brow bone, cupid's bow. No harsh catchlights — single large soft rectangular catchlight in eyes from the softbox. No rim light, no hair light, no background light. Pure frontal-adjacent beauty setup."
    },
    "color_palette": {
      "film_simulation": "PRO Neg Hi (NH)",
      "style": "Fujifilm PRO Neg Hi inspired color grading — professional studio portrait tonality, precise skin rendering with cool-pink undertone, controlled saturation (reds stay true red, not orange-red or wine-red), clean whites that stay neutral (no warmth, no blue cast), slightly elevated contrast for editorial punch",
      "tones": [
        "Pure neutral white (background, headpiece, top)",
        "True red / scarlet (ribbon, bow, text — the ONLY saturated color)",
        "Cool pink-white skin with natural flush",
        "Gray-green iris as the single non-red/white color element",
        "Dark brown to ash-blonde hair as neutral frame"
      ],
      "grade_notes": [
        "highlight roll-off: clean and controlled — whites stay white without clipping, no bloom or glow",
        "shadow tint: neutral to very slightly cool — no warmth in shadows",
        "contrast curve: medium-high — enough contrast for editorial punch but skin midtones stay smooth",
        "grain: NONE — this is clean digital beauty photography, no film grain",
        "skin: 'perfect but real' — pores visible, micro-texture present, but no blemishes. NOT plastic/airbrushed. Cool-pink undertone.",
        "red rendering: TRUE RED — must not shift to orange or magenta. The red ribbon and text should be pure scarlet/vermillion",
        "white balance: slightly cool (5600-5800K) — keeps the clinical editorial feel"
      ]
    },
    "environment": {
      "setting": "Professional photo studio",
      "background": "Seamless pure white — white paper backdrop or white cyclorama wall, completely featureless. No gradient, no shadow, no texture. The background is 'nothing' — it doesn't exist as a space, only as negative space.",
      "atmosphere": "Zero atmosphere — no haze, no dust, no environmental storytelling. The 'atmosphere' IS the lack of atmosphere. This is a controlled void where only the face and the red elements exist."
    },
    "mood": "Editorial stillness. The image feels like the moment between a heartbeat — suspended, precise, intimate without warmth. The red elements add TENSION to the calm — like a red thread through white noise. Not aggressive, not inviting — it's a statement: 'I am here. Look.'",
