Black and white portrait of four men sitting together on an old sofa in an industrial warehouse interior by photographer Jeff Forney.

Jeff Forney, Photographer, New York

About

This black and white photographic portrait captures four men seated together on a worn sofa inside an industrial warehouse setting with exposed concrete floors and bright, blown-out windows in the background. The group is casually posed, with each individual wearing street apparel including sweatshirts, caps, and jackets. Strong backlighting creates high-contrast silhouettes and stark lighting edges around the figures. The monochromatic palette emphasizes the raw textures of the concrete and the vintage fabric of the seating. The image was photographed by Jeff Forney.
