He wears a crisp white dress shirt under a tailored grey blazer. The lighting is soft and directional, casting gentle shadows that accentuate his facial features and the texture of his dark hair. The background is a solid dark grey backdrop with a subtle vignette effect, focusing attention entirely on the subject.
