Alex Farnum, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

An experienced artisan shoemaker stands inside a rustic leather workshop, leaning against a wooden counter displayed with various boots. He wears a striped shirt, a tan canvas apron with front pockets, a measuring tape draped around his neck, and a flat cap over glasses. The background features a brick wall covered in small notes and photographs, alongside shelves stocked with tools and footwear. The lighting is warm and directional, creating deep shadows that emphasize the rich textures of leather, wood, and brick. Photographer Alex Farnum captures this candid environmental portrait in Los Angeles.
