Profile / Avatar - Photorealistic Sunset Portrait with Reference Face

A photorealistic portrait of a beautiful young {argument name="age" default="22-year-old"} woman sitting casually on a dark granite ledge, looking directly at the camera with a relaxed, subtle smile. She is wearing a sporty, color-blocked outfit: a short-sleeved t-shirt with a solid white front and bright orange sleeves and shoulders, paired with matching orange shorts featuring white drawstrings and white side stripes. Her right leg is pulled up with her right arm resting comfortably on her knee. She has a natural, elegant feminine appearance with healthy glowing skin. The setting is an outdoor balcony or terrace with a black metal railing. In the background, a stunning golden hour sunset illuminates a wide river or lake, casting vibrant warm orange and yellow hues across the sky and reflecting beautifully on the water, with lush green trees visible to the left. Shot on an {argument name="lens" default="85mm lens"}, f/1.8 aperture, cinematic golden-hour lighting, shallow depth of field, beautiful natural background bokeh, ultra-realistic skin texture, soft skin glow, realistic facial details, natural colors, professional photography, high resolution. STRICTLY USE THE UPLOADED REFERENCE IMAGE FOR HER FACE AND IDENTITY. Keep the original face 100% unchanged and identical to the reference — same facial features, facial structure, proportions, skin tone, eye shape and color, nose, lips, eyebrows, jawline, hairstyle, hair texture, age, and natural expression. Do not beautify, alter, reshape, or idealize the face. Preserve the exact same identity and hairstyle from the reference image. The final image must look like the exact same girl from the reference photo, only placed in this new setting and outfit. Skin should have a natural healthy glow while maintaining realistic skin texture and pores. No face distortion, no identity change, no artificial beauty filter, no excessive makeup, no facial modification.
