close-up cinematic portrait of a woman in her 30s under heavy rain at night, hard rim light from a single sodium street lamp behind her, water droplets catching light on her skin, shallow depth of field, shot on 85mm f/1.4, anamorphic flares, muted teal shadows and warm amber highlights, film grain, photoreal --ar 4:5 --style raw
Why this works
Rim light + a single named light source is what reads as 'cinematic' instead of 'AI'. Keep the lens spec — it drives the bokeh.
