James Houston, Photographer, Sydney

Description

This black and white fashion editorial diptych by photographer James Houston features two distinct subjects against a plain studio background. On the left, a Black man wears a dark flat cap, an open grey cardigan over a white collared shirt, and dark trousers with hands tucked in pockets. On the right, a woman with dark hair tied back wears a short-sleeved striped turtleneck top and dark trousers, also posing with hands in pockets. The lighting is soft and directional, highlighting the textures of the knitwear and creating smooth tonal gradations. The composition is clean and minimalist, focusing purely on the subjects and their styling.
