Use the attached selfie. Keep the face, skin tone, hair, glasses and body exactly as in the photo and change no feature at all; convert the picture to black and white and change only wardrobe, background and light. An executive portrait in a dark [colour] jacket against a near black background, lit with one hard source from the front right and a narrow rim light along the left edge of the face. Strong contrast, deep blacks, every line and texture of the skin kept. Direct steady gaze, shoulders turned slightly. 105mm at f/5.6. Photorealistic monochrome, aspect ratio 4:5. No text, no watermark.
