Ben Watts, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This monochrome editorial image captured by photographer Ben Watts portrays a man in the foreground standing inside a bustling barbershop. He wears a patterned short-sleeve shirt over a white undershirt and holds a comb near his head, looking directly toward the camera with a playful expression. In the background, other patrons sit in barber chairs while stylists tend to their hair beneath checkerboard ceiling tiles and dotted wall murals. The high-contrast black-and-white grading emphasizes the rich textures of the interior space, from the tiled floors and vintage mirrors to the spinning electric fan and barbershop equipment.
