Prompt

{   "prompt": "A candid, documentary-style indoor portrait of a young woman sitting on a worn fabric couch in a modest living room. She wears an oversized black graphic {argument name="clothing type" default="band T-shirt"} and loose black pants, styled casually with no visible effort. Her hair is loosely tied back, makeup minimal or absent, with natural skin texture and slight under-eye softness visible. She faces the camera directly with a calm, tired, introspective expression. The environment feels lived-in and slightly cluttered, with an old desktop computer, exposed cables, and dated furniture in the background. The image is captured using direct on-camera flash, creating flat, harsh lighting with strong shadows and a nostalgic early-digital-camera aesthetic. Colors are muted and slightly cool, with a subtle greenish cast typical of early 2000s flash photography. A timestamp overlay appears in the corner, reinforcing the lo-fi, archival feel. The mood is intimate, vulnerable, and unpolished, emphasizing realism over beauty.
