Jessica Craig-martin, Photographer, New York

Description

This striking close-up portrait, captured by photographer Jessica Craig-Martin, focuses on the upper portion of a woman's face and an elaborate headpiece. A dark, netted veil covered in small beaded droplets obscures the upper features, casting textured shadows across her brow. The subject wears an intricate, high updo hairstyle with wispy, feathered strands extending outward against a stark black background. Direct flash lighting creates sharp highlights on the skin and the sparkling stud earrings visible on her earlobes.
