Carter Smith, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This black-and-white portrait features Gwyneth Paltrow wearing a dark, patterned beret and a heavy cable-knit cardigan draped off one shoulder. Her long blonde hair falls straight around her face as she gazes directly toward the camera with a neutral expression. The background consists of soft-focus window light, creating a bright, diffused halo effect around her silhouette. Photographed by Carter Smith, the image employs high-contrast monochrome grading to highlight the rich textures of the knitwear and the intricate pattern of the headwear.
