Create an ultra-realistic cinematic portrait of the same male person from the uploaded reference image. Preserve his recognizable facial identity, natural skin tone, facial hair, and overall appearance. Show him in a three-quarter side profile, body angled slightly away while his head turns toward the left side of the frame. Give him a relaxed, confident expression. Dress him in a premium black button-down shirt with the top few buttons naturally open. Add classic round black sunglasses with a thin gold metal frame. Create naturally voluminous, textured hair with individual strands visible and realistic movement, while keeping the hairstyle believable for the person. Use a dark black-to-deep-brown studio background filled with subtle atmospheric smoke and haze. Place a strong warm golden backlight behind and slightly above the subject, creating a brilliant rim light around the hair, ears, shoulders, and jawline. Add a soft warm key light on the face while maintaining rich cinematic shadows and dimensional facial contours. Luxury cinematic portrait photography, dramatic chiaroscuro lighting, warm amber highlights, deep blacks, realistic skin pores, natural facial texture, crisp hair detail, realistic sunglasses reflections, subtle filmic contrast, shallow depth of field, atmospheric volumetric glow, premium editorial color grading, photorealistic, HDR, ultra-detailed, high-end commercial photography. 85mm portrait lens, f/1.8, ISO 100, medium close-up framing from the upper chest upward, subject slightly off-center, comfortable headroom, sharp focus on the face and hair. No text, captions, logos, watermark, borders, interface elements, arrows, buttons, or icons. No plastic skin, excessive retouching, distorted sunglasses, artificial hair, stiff pose, or cartoon/AI-generated appearance. Aspect ratio: 4:5.
