Carter Smith, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This is a black and white close-up portrait of a female model. The model has wet blonde hair styled with a side part, with strands falling across her forehead. The model's skin appears to be covered with fine sand, giving it a textured, sparkling effect. Her eye makeup is dramatic with dark liner and shadow, emphasizing her gaze. The photograph's shallow depth of field blurs the beach background, throwing focus on the subject. The lighting is bright, casting shadows that accentuate the model's features. The image's stark contrasts and textures create a visually arresting portrait.
