Headshots
Professional corporate headshot of a woman in their mid-30s, wearing a navy blazer over a white collared shirt, a warm, confident smile, direct eye contact with camera. 4K ultra-high definition headshot photograph. Lens: 85mm, f/4 — face and shoulders tack sharp throughout, no distracting depth-of-field falloff. Lighting: soft studio key light with a fill card to prevent harsh shadows — even, flattering, no harsh shadows on the face, catch lights visible in both eyes. Skin: natural texture retained, professional retouching level only — no plastic smoothing. Background: a seamless light gray backdrop, softly out of focus, no distracting elements. Framing: head-and-shoulders crop, subject centered, small amount of headroom above. Colors: neutral, clean color balance — true-to-life skin tones. Quality: 4K ultra-high definition corporate headshot, LinkedIn profile photo standard — approachable, credible, camera-ready.
Negative prompt :
harsh shadows, asymmetric lighting, distorted face, extra fingers, casual clothing, cluttered background, low quality, watermark, text

Headshots
Executive studio headshot of a man in their 50s, wearing a dark charcoal tailored suit with no tie, quiet, confident authority, shoulders angled slightly off-camera with face turned toward the lens. 4K ultra-high definition studio portrait photograph. Lens: 100mm, f/5.6 — maximum sharpness across the entire face. Lighting: classic Rembrandt lighting — a defined triangle of light on the shadow-side cheek, strong but flattering directionality, subtle rim light separating the subject from the background. Skin: full natural texture, executive-portrait retouching only. Background: a deep charcoal-to-black gradient, deep and moody, subject clearly separated from it by the rim light. Colors: desaturated and moody, with warm skin tones as the only bright color. Quality: 4K ultra-high definition, boardroom-portrait standard — the gravitas of an executive bio photo, not a snapshot.
Negative prompt :
flat even lighting, washed out, distorted face, extra fingers, low quality, watermark, text, casual snapshot look

Headshots
Creative industry headshot of a man in their late 20s, wearing a simple black crew-neck top, a confident, playful smile, dynamic confident posture. 4K ultra-high definition headshot photograph. Lens: 85mm, f/4 — face tack sharp, bold background evenly rendered behind. Lighting: clean, even studio lighting from two matched softboxes — clean and even, letting the background color read true without casting on the subject. Skin: natural texture, light retouching. Background: a bold, flat deep teal seamless backdrop — saturated but not neon, professional-creative rather than costume-party bright. Framing: head-and-shoulders, subject slightly off-center with room for the color to breathe on one side. Colors: bold but tasteful — the background color is saturated, the subject's tones stay natural. Quality: 4K ultra-high definition headshot, creative-agency team-page standard — personality-forward but still unmistakably professional.
Negative prompt :
neon oversaturated color, harsh shadows, distorted face, extra fingers, low quality, watermark, text, background color casting on skin
