Ekua King, Photographer, London

Description

This striking black and white portrait photograph by Ekua King captures a close-up view of a smiling Black woman in profile. Her hair is styled in a tall, secure topknot, drawing the eye upward through the vertical composition. She wears a prominent, irregular metallic earring that catches the light against her skin. The lighting is high-contrast, emphasizing facial contours and the texture of her skin and features. The background is minimal and neutral, keeping total focus on her joyful expression.
