Description

This intimate close-up portrait is part of the HERO USA project titled Between the Downtown Air, captured by photographer Mikkel Jensen. The portrait features a young male model with short hair and a serious expression, styled by Imaan Sayed with hair by Shin Arima and makeup by Iona Moura. The composition utilizes low-key lighting and a muted, neutral colour palette to emphasize form and texture. The studio background is minimal, focusing entirely on the subject against a softly lit gradient.
