Erik Tanner, Photographer, New York

Description

This striking monochrome close-up portrait, captured by photographer Erik Tanner, features a woman with intense dark eye makeup. Her fingers are held delicately near her lower face, partially obscuring her mouth as she gazes upward. The high-contrast lighting creates dramatic shadows and highlights across her features, emphasizing the texture of her skin and hair. The composition is tightly cropped, focusing entirely on her expressive eyes and the interplay of light and shadow.
