Mark Clennon, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This striking monochrome portrait features a Black woman wearing a beanie, a V-neck sweater, and an unbuttoned collared jacket, with her hand touching her mouth to reveal grillz. She is adorned with multiple layered chain necklaces that catch the light against her neck. The composition is a tightly framed mid-shot against a plain, neutral background. The lighting is soft and directional, accentuating the textures of the wool cap and heavy jacket fabric. The photograph was captured by photographer and director Mark Clennon.
