Stephane Coutelle, Photographer, Paris

Description

This extreme close-up macro photograph by Paris-based photographer Stephane Coutelle focuses tightly on a pair of parted lips coated in glossy bright pink lipstick. The shot captures fine dermal and lip texture, with sharp specular highlights glistening across the moist surface of the lower and upper lips. Soft, diffused lighting accentuates the natural contours and creases without harsh shadows. The composition creates an intimate and tactile study of form and colour in beauty photography.
