The Prompt
Use my uploaded photo as the primary facial identity reference. Create an ultra-realistic, high-end professional studio portrait of the exact same African man. Preserve his original facial features, face shape, skin tone, natural complexion, age, facial structure, smile, and overall recognizable identity. Do not alter or beautify his face.

Outfit & Styling:
Dress him in an elegant, perfectly tailored black traditional African senator-style outfit with long sleeves, a refined round neckline, and intricate vertical embroidery running down the centre of the chest. Add matching embroidered detailing on the chest pocket using dark forest green, burgundy red, cream, and subtle gold patterns. Include a simple black traditional cap (fila), stylish black rectangular eyeglasses, and a premium silver-and-black luxury wristwatch.

Pose & Expression:
Position him standing confidently with a gentle, natural smile, looking directly at the camera. His right hand rests naturally over his chest while his other hand is casually placed inside his trouser pocket. Maintain relaxed shoulders, elegant posture, and a sophisticated presence.

Photography & Background:
Use a smooth, warm caramel-brown studio background with subtle tonal gradients. Professional softbox studio lighting, warm cinematic illumination, balanced highlights and shadows, realistic skin texture, natural facial details, sharp focus, and beautifully controlled contrast.

Camera & Quality:
Luxury fashion editorial photography, medium-full portrait composition, eye-level camera angle, 85mm portrait lens, shallow depth of field, photorealistic details, premium colour grading, crisp fabric textures, realistic hands, and professional studio photography.

IMPORTANT: Maintain the exact identity of the person in the uploaded reference image. Do not change his facial appearance, expression, skin tone, or natural proportions. Avoid artificial skin smoothing, exaggerated features, distorted hands, extra fingers, incorrect embroidery, or cartoon-like effects.

Final Result: A sophisticated, photorealistic African traditional fashion portrait with timeless elegance and premium editorial quality.
