The prompt

Turn my photo into a classic black-and-white portrait. Keep my face exactly as it is: same features, shape, age, expression and skin texture. Don't slim, smooth or beautify anything. Photo: [attach] Style: [high-contrast dramatic / soft and timeless / gritty documentary film grain] Edit: - Convert to true monochrome with rich blacks, clean whites and a full range of greys in between. - Light: shape the face with soft side light from the [left], with gentle shadow on the other side; catchlights in the eyes. - Background: [keep as is but darker / plain dark grey studio backdrop / softly blurred]. - Crop: [head and shoulders / half body], aspect ratio [4:5]. - Add a subtle film grain; keep skin pores and fine lines. Avoid: changing clothing or hair, adding jewellery or props, plastic skin, glowing halos around hair, any colour tint unless I ask for sepia or selenium.
