Sam Leonardi, Hair Stylist, Los Angeles

Description

This black-and-white portrait features actress Elizabeth Olsen seated on a light-colored, textured boucle sofa by a large window with soft drapery. She wears a dark short-sleeve top with a detailed neckline and has her long hair styled in loose waves. The lighting is natural and directional, coming from the side window to create gentle highlights on her face and bare legs. The background shows a domestic interior with framed artwork on the wall and a second window frame. The composition uses a vertical format with a shallow depth of field, focusing sharply on the subject while the background remains softly out of focus. Hair styling for the shoot was executed by Sam Leonardi in Los Angeles.
