Description

This portrait photograph by London-based photographer Juanita Richards captures an intimate moment inside a barbershop. A Black barber wearing a grey beanie, light-colored sweatshirt, and a canvas apron holds clippers while grooming a young boy seated in a black salon chair. The boy wears a printed cape adorned with a starry pattern and colorful motifs. The warm interior features a long wooden vanity counter backed by large illuminated mirrors reflecting shelves stocked with various bottles and supplies. The composition uses natural ambient lighting to highlight the textured details of the scene.
