Prompt
"25–30-year-old Instagram influencer with long wavy dark-brown hair, minimal dewy makeup, wearing an oversized cream hoodie and black biker shorts, holding a clear iced latte and looking just past the front-facing phone camera with a relaxed half-smile. Candid coffee-shop moment at a bright window seat with neutral decor, laptop and tote bag on the table, golden-hour sunlight spilling in, soft curated Instagram color grading. Shot like an Instagram Story selfie (slight wide-angle), natural light with subtle phone HDR, authentic “quick check-in before work” vibe."
