Joshua Pestka, Photographer, New York

Description

This close-up beauty portrait by photographer Joshua Pestka focuses intently on the upper face of a model. The composition highlights striking artistic makeup, featuring bold sweeps of purple and bright blue eyeshadow across the eyelids, paired with subtle gold accents in the inner corners. The skin has a clean, natural texture with visible pores and minimal retouching, complemented by softly glossy, natural-toned lips. The lighting is bright and even, accentuating the contours of the nose and cheekbones without harsh shadows. The tight crop centres entirely on the subject's features, creating a clean graphic impact.
