Do not artificially slim, enlarge, flatten, or reshape either person's body. ### COUPLE & COMPOSITION Create a warm, natural **candid couple portrait** of the two adults sitting closely together on old stone steps beneath a rustic doorway covered in dense climbing vines. The woman sits on the **left side** and the man on the **right side**. They are sitting comfortably shoulder-to-shoulder with a relaxed, intimate connection. ### WOMAN — POSE - seated naturally on the stone step - torso slightly angled toward the man - head gently resting against his shoulder - relaxed shoulders - one arm naturally resting across her lap - opposite hand gently holding his forearm/upper arm - relaxed fingers - natural posture - body comfortably positioned beside him ### WOMAN — EXPRESSION She looks directly toward the camera with a **warm, genuine smile**.

Use: - thick dark hair - naturally textured volume - slightly tousled styling - realistic individual strands - subtle flyaway hairs Do not radically change either hairstyle. --- ## LOCATION Place the couple at the entrance of a **rustic, secluded heritage-style home or garden structure**. Create: - aged stone steps - weathered greenish stone - old masonry walls - dark recessed doorway - dense climbing vines - hanging branches - lush leaves - natural garden vegetation - moss and subtle weathering - deep green background The setting should feel peaceful, private, nostalgic, and naturally beautiful. --- ## FOREGROUND FOLIAGE Create a sophisticated **shooting-through-foliage composition**. Place large leaves and thin branches very close to the camera: - soft blurred leaves across the upper edge - foliage along the left edge - foliage along the right edge - blurred leaves across portions of the lower foreground - subtle branches crossing the frame - varying levels of optical blur The foliage should naturally frame the couple and create strong depth. **Keep both faces completely unobstructed.** The viewer should feel as though the photograph was captured secretly/organically through nearby plants. --- ## LIGHTING Use soft **natural daylight filtered through the surrounding vegetation**. Create: - gentle illumination on both faces - soft highlights in the eyes - subtle highlights on the woman's hair - natural highlights on the man's hair - soft green ambient bounce - delicate shadows - realistic light falloff toward the dark doorway - subtle dappled sunlight Keep the exposure balanced and natural.

Sharpness priority: 1. woman's eyes and face 2. man's eyes and face 3. upper bodies 4. clothing and jewelry 5. stone steps 6. surrounding environment 7. foreground leaves Foreground foliage should produce beautiful creamy natural bokeh. Do not use artificial-looking blur. --- ## EMOTIONAL DIRECTION The photograph should communicate: **love • comfort • companionship • trust • warmth • peaceful happiness** Their body language should suggest a couple who are completely comfortable together.
