Angela Marklew, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This striking close-up beauty portrait by photographer Angela Marklew in Los Angeles focuses on a black woman with a clean-shaven head. She has her finger gently resting against her lower lip, which features a distinctive split-tone application of deep red lipstick on one side and a neutral tone on the other. The lighting is soft and directional, highlighting the rich texture of her skin and the subtle parting between her front teeth. The composition is tight, framing her face and shoulders against a neutral grey studio background. The minimalist aesthetic emphasizes the bold makeup choice and natural expression.
