Use the uploaded photo as the reference for both people. Preserve both people's recognisable faces, natural skin tones and relative heights as closely as the model permits; check each person against the reference. Scene: an open-air dandiya night ground in Vadodara, strings of coloured bulbs overhead, a decorated stage with a live band far behind, other dancers blurred in a big circle. Moment or Pose: the couple faces each other mid-step, dandiya sticks crossing with a visible click, both laughing, her skirt flaring with the turn; both faces clearly visible. Clothing: a mirror-work chaniya choli in magenta and green with oxidised jewellery for her; a white kediyu with a colourful embroidered jacket for him. Light: warm bulb light from above with pink and yellow stage wash behind, gentle glow on faces. Camera: 50mm, f/2, fast shutter to freeze the sticks, eye level. Style: candid festival photography, rich colour, natural skin texture. Format: vertical 4:5. Avoid: changed faces, extra sticks or hands, sticks passing through bodies, plastic skin, text, watermarks.
