# Five photos → a recognizable profile portrait

## Capture
- Front view, left three-quarter, right three-quarter, left profile, right profile.
- Current appearance, natural light, no beauty filter, unobstructed face.
- Keep the camera at a sensible distance rather than using an extreme wide-angle selfie.
- Store originals in assets/face-references/ and label the angle.

## Generate
Use the stage 4 prompt with all five references and 03-brand.md. Ask for one professional portrait first. Preserve facial proportions, eye shape/colour, eyebrows, nose, skin tone, hairline and recognizable features. Improve the setting and lighting rather than replacing the person.

## Check
- Same person at thumbnail size?
- Recognizable expression, eyebrows and smile?
- Natural eyes and facial proportions?
- No warped teeth, ears, hair or jewellery?
- Works as a circular crop?
- Fits the approved palette without sacrificing skin tone?

Request one specific correction at a time. If the likeness still fails, use a well-lit real photograph. Save the owner-approved version and record it in 04-profile.md.
