Chieska Fortune Smith, Photographer, London

Description

A striking black and white portrait captured by photographer and director Chieska Fortune Smith, featuring a Black woman with elaborate, dark jeweled appliqués adorning her eye area. She wears a high-collared, sheer lace blouse with intricate floral embroidery and a fitted lace choker. Her hair is styled in structured braids framing her face, and her expression is direct and intense. The moody, high-contrast lighting creates deep shadows while intensely highlighting the lace collar and the reflective facets of the jewels.
