90s-style film portrait from a reference photo

A long, detailed prompt to turn a reference photo of a man into a warm, grainy 1990s film-style portrait in a cozy indoor setting.

Prompt

Create a 90s style portrait of the same man as in the reference photo, keeping his exact facial features and expression. The image should look as if it was clicked with a 1990s film camera, slightly grainy with warm tones. The scene takes place in a cozy, dimly lit room where a camera flash is clearly visible, casting a focused light on the man while the background remains slightly shadowed.
Only the upper half of his body is visible in the frame. He is posing elegantly, wearing a simple yet stylish 90s outfit such as a casual shirt or turtleneck that complements the warm indoor setting.
The background features a white wall with a few magazine clippings and posters of Hollywood stars from the 90s pinned to it, adding a nostalgic touch. The overall mood should evoke a classic retro portrait look, natural yet artistically lit.
