Example (filled in)
subject_role=startup founder | gender_age=woman in her 30s | style=photorealistic | background=modern office bokeh | mood=confident and approachable | color_palette=warm neutrals | accessories=minimalist gold earrings

Tips for Better Results
Describe clothing colors explicitly — DALL-E responds better to color names than brand references. Ask for 'symmetrical facial features' to reduce distortion. Use follow-up prompts like 'same person, three-quarter angle' to maintain consistency across iterations.
