Prompt
"Late-20s woman with shoulder-length wavy dark hair in a simple white tee and relaxed denim, holding a sleek reusable water bottle mid-sip while leaning on a sunny café window bar; she glances just off-camera with a casual half-smile like a spontaneous Instagram story frame. Shot on a phone camera at arm’s length with natural window light, warm skin tones, clean brand-campaign color grading and crisp commercial lighting feel, background softly showing pastries and laptops for an aspirational everyday vibe."
