The image shows two people in a close pose. The person on the left has curly dark hair and is wearing a strapless dress with a floral pattern. They wear a gold necklace and hold the other person's waist. The second person, on the right, has shoulder-length wavy hair, and is smiling directly at the camera. They are wearing a short-sleeved black and white patterned jacket with a red handkerchief in the pocket, a red bangle on their wrist, and a necklace. Both have manicured nails. The background is filled with greenery, with leaves and branches visible, and there appears to be a large tree trunk and pink blooms.
