Apply a restrained warm golden-hour color grade to the permitted source portrait without changing the person, pose, clothing, background or composition. Warm direct highlights slightly, keep facial skin tone neutral and believable, open deep shadows enough to retain detail, soften distracting greens and protect the sky from clipping. Add subtle fine grain and gentle contrast without artificial relighting. Preserve face identity, source texture and clothing color relationships. Do not create orange skin, yellow eyes, HDR halos, a heavy vignette, fake sun flare, text, logos or a before-and-after layout.
