Kwaku Alston, Photographer, New York

Description

This black and white portrait photograph features American actor and comedian Bill Hader, captured in a close-up framing by photographer Kwaku Alston. The subject is shown from the chest up, wearing a dark textured crew-neck sweater with a lighter trim around the collar. He has short dark hair with subtle grey temples and a neatly trimmed dark beard and mustache. His expression is serious and direct as he gazes slightly off-axis toward the camera. The lighting is soft and directional, accentuating the natural texture of his skin and facial features. The background is a neutral, light-toned surface with visible film border edges framing the composition.
