Carlos Serrao, Photographer, New York

Description

This striking portrait by photographer Carlos Serrao captures a woman in a close-up framing, with her face partially obscured by the vibrant stem and petals of an orange bird of paradise flower. She wears a reflective, metallic chainmail top and a simple rigid choker necklace around her neck. Her dark hair is parted neatly and pulled back, and her direct gaze meets the camera with a neutral expression. The background features a pale grid-like pattern that adds structure to the composition. Soft, even lighting highlights the metallic textures of her attire and the smooth contours of her face.
