A woman holds a lit match in front of her face, the flame just above her lips, looking directly at the camera through strands of hair. A close-up portrait. Part of her face is hidden by loose strands of hair. Her right hand is raised to her face, holding a thin wooden match between her fingers, the tip of the match, with a bright flame, pointing upward. Her skin is evenly matte, with long black eyelashes, light brown eyeshadow, and matte brown lipstick. The woman is wearing a slightly unbüttoned light-colored shirt made of soft fabric with a turn-down collar, the top pairs of buttons undone. Around her neck are several silver metal chains of varying lengths: one chain is thicker with large links, the other thin and short. Her fingers are adorned with several metal rings of varying thicknesses. Her nails are medium-length and coated with brown glossy polish. The setting is minimalist, with a uniform background of a deep, warm red color without distinguishable details, creating a dense background. The lighting is dramatic and cinematic, with dramatic low-key lighting. The main light source is a warm orange-yellow match flame directly in front of the face. A small practical light source illuminates the lower part of the face, nose, lips, and fingers from below, creating a bright local accent. Additional soft, warm, low-power side light from the right of the camera barely fills the shadows on the hair and cheek contour. Hard shadows from the hand and nose on the face; the flame light creates high local contrast between the brightly illuminated areas of the skin and the dark background. Highly detailed, photorealistic, shot on an 85mm portrait lens. Important: The girl's face remains unchanged, with natural features and realistic skin texture, the color of the eyes does not change

The high word count gives the model rich context, reducing ambiguity and producing more consistent results. The photorealistic and cinematic aesthetic signals are specific enough that the model can lock onto a distinct visual language. Explicit lighting direction (a leading signal in prompt engineering) significantly improves photo-realism and composition. Well-crafted prompts like this one combine subject precision, style vocabulary, and rendering hints — the three pillars of reliable AI image generation.
FLUX is strongly recommended for this prompt. FLUX 1.1 Pro excels at photorealism and handles complex lighting instructions more accurately than older models.
Face distortion is the most common issue — enable 'face fix' or use --no deformed faces in Midjourney. Hands may also look unnatural; add 'perfect hands, detailed fingers' if body is included.
