Description

This intimate portrait captures a Black woman with long dark braids and closed eyes, framed in a close-up composition. Dramatic side lighting casts deep shadows across the subject's face, highlighting the contours of her features and glossy lips. She wears subtle jewellery, including a small nose ring and earrings. The background consists of a soft, neutral textured fabric surface that complements the warm, subdued color palette. Photographed by Bethany Mollenkof in New York.
