James White, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

A woman is depicted reclining horizontally across a dark tufted velvet sofa, with her legs bent upward. She wears dark, flowing clothing and has dark hair with side-swept bangs, resting her hand near her face with fingers touching her jawline. The scene is lit with low-key, moody directional lighting that casts deep shadows and highlights the contours of her legs and upper body. The background consists of the upholstered velvet furniture surfaces in dark hues. This photograph was captured in Los Angeles by photographer James White.
