Prompt
A cinematic portrait of a woman in her thirties with windswept hair, standing in a wheat field at golden hour, sun flaring softly behind her shoulder, warm backlight catching stray hairs, shallow depth of field with creamy bokeh, natural skin texture with freckles, muted film color grade. Shot on an 85mm lens at f/1.8, still from an indie film.

How to use this prompt
"Natural skin texture with freckles" is the anti-plastic clause — without it Flux airbrushes faces into rendered perfection. "Still from an indie film" quietly sets the whole color science; swapping it for "editorial fashion photograph" changes the grade more than any color words would. Keep CFG at 3.5 — higher guidance is what makes AI portraits look uncanny.
Variations to try
- Male version — "a bearded man in a wool jacket, blue hour after sunset, cooler grade"
- Urban version — "standing in a rain-soaked neon street at night" borrows the cyberpunk palette
