The prompt

Create an ultra-realistic candid smartphone selfie of a couple standing close together on a beautiful beach during sunset. The man is in the foreground on the left, wearing a simple black crew-neck sweater, with naturally tousled hair, a relaxed gentle smile, and a warm, natural expression. The woman is leaning closely against him from the right, wearing a soft off-white knit sweater, with long naturally flowing hair, subtle gold hoop earrings, and a soft genuine smile.

They are framed from approximately the chest up, with their faces close together and filling most of the frame. The camera is held at arm’s length slightly above eye level, creating an authentic handheld selfie perspective. Natural facial proportions, realistic skin texture, subtle pores, fine hair strands, and lifelike expressions.

Behind them is a serene ocean beach at golden hour, with gentle waves, wet sand reflecting the warm sunlight, and a rocky coastline with a trees in the distance. The sun is positioned low near the horizon, creating a beautiful warm orange-golden glow across the water and beach.

The sky is dramatic deep turquoise and cyan-blue, filled with large fluffy clouds illuminated by warm peach, pink, and orange sunset light, creating a striking contrast between the cool blue atmosphere and the warm sunset tones. Soft peach and orange highlights spread across the cloud edges, with subtle pink hues around the setting sun.

Warm natural sunset lighting, soft highlights on their faces, gentle rim light around their hair, realistic shadows, cinematic golden-hour atmosphere, shallow natural depth of field, authentic smartphone photography, slight wide-angle perspective, realistic exposure, highly detailed, photorealistic, 8K quality.

Composition: vertical 4:5, intimate close-up couple selfie, man slightly larger in the foreground, woman naturally leaning against his shoulder, ocean, coastline, sunset, and dramatic turquoise-cyan cloud-filled sky clearly visible behind them.

Negative prompt: no identity change, no distorted face, no unnatural expressions, no bad anatomy, no plastic skin, no artificial-looking hair, no blur, no CGI, no cartoon effect, no oversaturation, no harsh lighting, no text, no watermark.
