Emily Maye, Photographer, New York

Description

A quiet indoor portrait captures a Black woman with dreadlocks resting on a sofa while reading an open book. She wears a long-sleeved cream top and is partially covered by a thick cream-colored blanket draped across her lap. Her hand rests gently against her forehead as she focuses on the pages in soft interior light. The composition features warm tones and natural shadows cast across the wall behind the couch. The photograph was captured by Emily Maye.
