Erika Long, Photographer, New York

Description

This extreme close-up macro portrait features a detailed view of parted lips coated in a high-gloss black lipstick. White teeth are visible behind the lips as a pink tongue gently extends to touch the edge of the teeth. The lighting highlights the glossy, reflective texture of the dark lip cosmetic against warm skin tones. The intimate framing focuses entirely on the mouth, capturing sharp surface details and crisp specular highlights. This photographic work was created by New York-based photographer Erika Long.
