Craig Mcdean, Photographer, New York

Description

This intimate portrait, photographed by Craig McDean in New York, captures a woman in profile with her arms raised to adjust her hair. She wears a fuzzy, textured cream-colored knit sweater that catches a strong, warm backlight along the shoulders and arms, creating a luminous rim effect. The background is deeply shadowed and indistinct, putting the focus entirely on the contours of her face and the tactile knit fabric. The composition employs a tight horizontal crop that emphasizes the sculptural quality of the subject's pose.
