Description
Photographed by Paul Scala for De Beers' Shadows project, model Candice Shepstone is captured in a striking black and white close-up beauty portrait. She wears a high black turtleneck accentuated by a sparkling diamond tennis necklace, an architectural metallic collar, and a single dangling diamond drop earring. Sharp, graphic diagonal shadows fall across her forehead and left eye, creating high tonal contrast against a clean, light studio backdrop. The styling by Naomi Miller and makeup by Jimmy Owen Jones emphasize defined eyebrows, sleek hair, and refined minimalism.
