Hyper-Realistic Cinematic Portrait of an Art Dealer

Shared by:@Daniel

Description

A highly detailed, structured JSON prompt for generating a hyper-realistic cinematic portrait (head-and-shoulders, 4:5 ratio) of a Cape Town art dealer. The prompt specifies Hasselblad-grade photorealism, precise camera settings (90mm lens, Phase One IQ4), complex lighting (hard gallery spotlight and cold skylight), and a specific pose and mood, with an explicit instruction to lock the face 100% to the reference image.
