Description
A striking black-and-white profile portrait showcasing high jewellery for De Beers' Shadows project, photographed by Paul Scala. The composition focuses intimately on the ear and neck of model Candice Shepstone, highlighting an intricate diamond ear cuff with delicate hanging chain drops. Her dark hair is styled sleek and combed back with a wet finish, casting a defined shadow along the jawline and neck. Directional, high-contrast lighting carves out the contours of the silhouette against a minimalist, softly gradient studio ground.
