HAIR & BEAUTY: Neatly brushed hair parted to the side, illuminated by soft key lighting that accentuates natural facial contours without harsh shadows. BACKGROUND & SETTING: A hand-painted canvas studio backdrop with moody charcoal-grey gradients and classic vignette shadows, evoking a vintage 1950s portrait studio in Mumbai or Kolkata.
