Ultra-realistic IMAX-level Netflix-style cinematic monochrome portrait, 4:5 vertical frame, use the uploaded image as the primary facial reference with maximum face consistency, create a young woman posing in an intimate editorial studio portrait, leaning naturally forward with her upper body slightly angled toward the camera, one elbow resting on a surface while her hand gently supports the side of her head, the opposite arm resting naturally across the foreground. She wears an elegant fitted black sleeveless V-neck dress with subtle textured fabric and a clean sophisticated silhouette. Her long, voluminous wavy hair flows naturally over both shoulders and spreads softly across the background and foreground, with individual strands and layered waves clearly defined. Facial Expression: soft, quiet and slightly melancholic expression, eyes looking directly toward the camera with relaxed but emotionally expressive eyelids, subtle catchlights in the irises, naturally shaped eyebrows, lips gently closed with a faint neutral curve, softly relaxed cheeks and a calm introspective mood. Pose & Composition: close-up to medium portrait framing, head slightly tilted toward the supporting hand, shoulders naturally asymmetrical, body angled slightly sideways while the face remains turned toward the camera, elegant relaxed posture, natural hand and finger positioning, intimate editorial composition with the face as the primary focal point. Lighting: dramatic single-source studio lighting from the upper side, soft directional illumination shaping one side of the face while the opposite side gradually falls into deep shadow, delicate highlights across the eyes, nose bridge, cheekbone and hair, smooth tonal transitions, subtle rim separation around the hair, no harsh blown highlights. Skin: Her skin has a fair natural skin tone with a natural neutral-warm undertone, soft healthy glow, visible skin texture, fine pores, consistent face and body tone. Visual Style: entirely black and white, rich monochrome tonal range, deep blacks, luminous highlights, sophisticated silver-gray midtones, subtle natural film grain, classic high-fashion editorial photography, timeless vintage glamour, realistic fabric texture, realistic hair detail, refined chiaroscuro, photorealistic 8K detail, cinematic depth of field, premium fine-art photography. Negative Prompt: distorted anatomy, malformed hands, extra fingers, unnatural eyes, asymmetrical face, plastic skin, excessive smoothing, blurry face, messy hair artifacts, harsh overexposure, crushed facial details, CGI look, cartoon, color tint, watermark.
