"Royal Golden Aesthetic DP"

CRITICAL RULE 1 (read first, applies above all else): The face in the
output MUST be the exact same person as the uploaded reference photo.
Do not generate a new face, do not beautify, do not idealize, do not
blend with a generic face. If you are unsure whether the face matches,
default to making it MORE identical to the reference, not less.

IDENTITY LOCK (exact match required): Match the reference photo exactly
for: face shape and bone structure, eye shape/size/color/spacing,
eyebrow shape, nose shape and width, lip shape and fullness, chin and
jawline shape, cheekbone structure, skin tone and undertone, any
visible marks, moles, or asymmetries. These are not suggestions — they
are hard constraints. Zero deviation allowed.

DO NOT COPY FROM REFERENCE (only these things should change): expression,
eye gaze direction, head angle/tilt, and body pose should NOT match the
reference photo — generate these freshly based on the scene below. To
be clear: FACE IDENTITY = locked exactly. EXPRESSION/POSE/ANGLE = freely
generated and different from the reference.

EMOTIONAL INTENT (design goal): This should feel like a rich, regal
"Nawabi/royal" aesthetic DP — warm, classy, and premium, the kind of
profile picture that feels expensive and timeless rather than trendy-
casual. Calm authority, not aggression.

COMPOSITION: A close-up to medium-close-up portrait crop (chest-up or
shoulders-up), designed to work well as a square or vertical profile
picture — clean, centered composition with warm negative space in the
background.

LIGHTING SETUP (as a real photographer would dial it in): Key light —
a single warm, soft light source from camera-left, simulating candle
or lamp light, wrapping gently around the face with soft falloff into
shadow. Fill — minimal, allowing one side of the face to fall into a
warm, rich shadow rather than staying flat, roughly a 3:1 key-to-fill
ratio. Rim light — a faint warm gold edge light separates him from the
deep maroon/charcoal background. Catchlights warm, soft, and intense.

LENS & OPTICS: Simulate an 85mm lens at f/1.8 — strong facial
compression ideal for a close portrait, background rendered as a deep
muted maroon or charcoal tone fading into soft darkness, gentle natural
vignette drawing focus to the face.

FILM/COLOR SCIENCE: Rich, warm royal-portrait grade — deep amber and
maroon tones, soft highlight rolloff (no harsh clipping), shadows
lifted just enough to retain detail without looking crushed, natural
true-to-reference skin tone preserved beneath the warm grading.

Style: A structured bandhgala jacket or a rich dark kurta with subtle
gold thread detailing at the collar, a simple gold chain or brooch
accent — refined and regal, no busy patterns, minimal but premium.

NEW POSE & ANGLE (must differ from reference, face identity unchanged):
Head turned into a composed three-quarter angle, chin very slightly
lifted with quiet authority, gaze steady and directed just past the
camera — a deliberate, dignified angle rather than a casual straight-
on stance.

NEW EXPRESSION (must differ from reference, face identity unchanged):
A calm, composed almost-smile — relaxed eyes, closed mouth, subtle
confidence without any exaggeration — the quiet self-assurance of
someone who doesn't need to try hard, not a stiff copied expression.

RETOUCH PIPELINE: Smooth tonal transitions while fully preserving fine
pore-level texture and the reference face's exact proportions. No
flattening, no waxy skin, no facial reshaping of any kind.

FINISHING: Fine film grain overlay at low opacity for a timeless,
premium feel, no digital sharpening halos, optimized to read as sharp
and elegant even at small thumbnail size.

FINAL VERIFICATION (mandatory self-check before output): Compare the
generated face side-by-side against the reference photo's face shape,
eyes, nose, lips, and jawline. If any facial feature does not match
the reference person, discard and regenerate the face to match exactly
— only the expression, pose, and angle are allowed to differ.
