Mini-cookie town in vertical frame

A miniature cookie village sits on a warm wooden table, arranged like a tiny town with cookie houses, pathways of crushed biscuit, and small sprinkle lampposts, photographed in a tall 9:16 vertical frame to read as a portrait street scene. The intent is to convey handcrafted charm and edible tactility with a playful, cozy mood and a sense of discovery as the eye moves from foreground to background. Surfaces remain unlettered and clean so the icing details and sugar textures read as abstract pattern and line. Foreground cookie houses are rendered in crisp detail with shallow to moderate depth so the nearest roofs and glazing resolve first while the tiny benches and trays recede softly. Light pools gently across the scene with a warm, golden bias that sculpts crumbs and glaze into soft highlights and rounded shadows. Colors echo the palette with pale cream, rosy pink, buttery yellow, lavender and soft blue notes to unify the baked tones and sugary accents. Framing is intimate and vertical with a medium-tight crop that keeps a clear top-to-bottom street feeling and balanced negative space at the sky and base edges. Props are minimal and purposeful, limited to a tiny icing bench and one sprinkle lamppost that reinforce the village story. The medium feels like macro food styling with tactile brushstroked icing, powdered sugar drift, and subtle steam or dust motes to suggest warmth and recent baking.
