BLOCK A- PRODUCT LOCK — ABSOLUTE, NON-NEGOTIABLE: The carrier in this image must match the attached reference photograph exactly in shape, proportion, stitching, hardware, and colourway. Reproduce it, do not reinterpret it. The carrier's complete geometry is: ONE wide padded belt worn horizontally around the waist at hip level, and ONE rigid contoured seat platform that projects outward from the wearer's hip. That is the entire product. Nothing else exists. - The belt is a single continuous horizontal band. It sits at the top of the pelvis / iliac crest, below the natural waist. - There is exactly ONE buckle. It is centred on the FRONT of the belt, at navel height, clearly visible. - The seat platform is a firm, structured, squared-off shelf covered in matching fabric. It holds its shape under load and does not sag, fold, collapse or compress. - NOTHING attaches above the belt line. The wearer's torso, chest, shoulders, upper back and neck are completely unobstructed by the product. - The wearer's clothing is fully visible across the entire torso above the belt. If the model is uncertain about any part of the carrier, it must default to showing LESS of the product rather than inventing more of it. BLOCK B- STYLE BIBLE — EVORA HAVEN HOUSE LOOK: PALETTE (the frame must sit inside this range): - Dominant: warm ivory / cream #FDFBF6 and #F7F2EC - Secondary: soft blush-greige #F0E8E3 and warm oat #E8DED6 - Accent (sparingly, 5–10% of frame): muted terracotta-clay #C8836B, dusty rose #E4B5A4 - Deep tone (structural only, never dominant): soft navy #1B2333 — allowed on a single garment or one background object, never as overall grade - Absolutely no: black, charcoal, cool grey, teal, cyan, neon, primary red, primary blue, saturated green EXPOSURE — CRITICAL: High-key. Expose +0.5 EV above metered. Lift the black point: the darkest pixel in the frame should read around 15–20% luminance. There must be NO crushed blacks and NO pure black anywhere in the image. Highlights roll off softly and creamily, never clipped. Overall tonal range compressed toward the upper third of the histogram. The image should feel airy, bright, and open — like a sunlit room in the late morning. LIGHT: Soft, diffuse, natural daylight from a large window or open shade. Broad, wrapping, directional but gentle. Shadows are soft-edged, warm, and shallow — never hard, never deep, never dramatic. No studio strobes. No rim lighting. No spotlights. No chiaroscuro. No moody side-light. Golden-hour warmth without golden-hour contrast. COLOUR GRADE: White balance approximately 5200K, biased warm. Global saturation reduced roughly 15%. Skin tones warm, natural, and true — never orange, never waxy. Matte film finish with a lifted, slightly milky black point. Kodak Portra 400 emulation. No teal-and-orange grade. No cinematic S-curve. No HDR. No clarity or structure boost. CAMERA: Full-frame, 50mm prime at f/2.0 (or 35mm at f/2.0 for wider environmental frames). ISO 200. Shallow but not extreme depth of field — subject sharp, background softly separated with creamy, undistracting bokeh. Camera at the subject's chest height, level, no dutch angle, no dramatic low angle. Fine, even 35mm film grain. WARDROBE: Soft natural fabrics — cotton, linen, ribbed knit, brushed jersey, warm denim. Colours restricted to: ivory, warm white, oatmeal, soft clay, dove grey, dusty rose, warm mid-blue denim. Relaxed, real, lived-in fit. No black clothing. No logos, no slogans, no visible branding, no busy prints or loud patterns. No athleisure. No styled "influencer" outfits. SET DRESSING: Real, lived-in, gently imperfect. A little clutter is correct. Warm wood, linen, ceramic, woven baskets, houseplants, natural textiles. No sterile minimalism. No white cyclorama. No seamless studio backdrop. No clinical or medical environment. MOOD: Quiet, warm, unperformed relief. Ease rather than triumph. The subject is occupied with an ordinary moment, not presenting to camera. Tender, grounded, domestic, editorial-documentary. Nothing heroic. Nothing aspirational-glossy. Nothing clinical. Nothing intense. SCENE: A tight macro on a woman's hands fastening the single front buckle of the Haven Hip Carrier at her waist. The buckle is centred, front, at navel height, and is being closed with one relaxed, unstrained movement. The hands are the subject of this photograph. HANDS — CRITICAL: The hands belong to a woman in her late fifties or sixties. Slightly enlarged knuckles, softly swollen finger joints, thin skin, visible veins, a few age spots, short unpolished nails, a worn gold wedding band. These are hands that have arthritis, rendered with dignity and warmth — not as illness, but as reality. The grip is light. The fingers are not white-knuckled, not straining, not gripping hard. The motion looks effortless. WHAT MUST BE VISIBLE: The buckle is at the FRONT, slightly to the side of the seat section, in clear focus. Both hands are in front of the body. Neither hand is reaching backward, upward, or behind the torso. The belt above the buckle is unobstructed — no straps, no webbing, no second fastening anywhere in frame. WARDROBE: A soft ivory linen shirt, sleeves rolled to the elbow. The forearms are visible. ENVIRONMENT: Softly defocused warm home interior behind — a hint of oak, a hint of cream wall. No detail should compete with the hands. LIGHT: Soft, wrapping window light from the front-left, illuminating the tops of the hands and the buckle face. Shadows soft and shallow. Skin warm and true. FRAMING: Vertical 5:7. Extreme close crop: hands, buckle and a section of belt fill the frame. Torso cropped at the ribs and mid-thigh. 50mm at f/2.8. Buckle plane in critical focus.
