[REFS: attach @Elena face ref] Close-up of the woman holding the ceramic mug near her lips, about to sip. She is looking to the LEFT — out toward the ocean, not at camera, not at the man. Her grey-green eyes are distant and heavy, somewhere far away. The mug rim is an inch from her lower lip, steam curling past her cheek. Both hands wrapped around the mug, sweater sleeves covering her wrists. The strand of hair across her left cheek. Behind her, very soft: the grey porch railing and the Atlantic. Only she is in frame. No man visible. No shoulder. Just her face and the mug. Shot on full-frame mirrorless, 50mm at f1.8. Her face and the mug sharp, background melting soft. Natural overcast with amber cloud-break from the left catching the steam and her cheekbone. Hyperrealistic — pores, the fine peach fuzz on her jaw, the moisture on her lower lip, ceramic texture, steam detail. 9:16 vertical.

Generate a single, hyper-realistic character reference image (strictly no collages, text, watermarks, or borders). The image must feature a cinematic, three-quarter portrait of the described character, maintaining a sharp, tack-focused emphasis on the face with natural skin textures, pore details, and realistic micro-expressions. The lighting should be cinematic and directional (e.g., subtle split or Rembrandt lighting) to give depth, blending seamlessly with the environment specified in the character description. The character must have a natural, living presence, looking slightly off-camera or directly at the lens with a subtle, context-aware expression. Ensure the full head, neck, and upper shoulders are completely unobstructed. This image serves as a high-fidelity identity blueprint for temporal-consistent video generation.
