Koury Angelo, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This striking portrait captures a Black man with a full afro and thick beard, posing with one arm outstretched toward the camera and the other crossing his chest. He wears a patterned purple and black robe with a deep maroon lining, layered beaded necklaces, a chunky gold cuff bracelet, and several prominent rings on his fingers. A large metallic ankh pendant hangs visibly from a heavy chain around his neck. The lighting is soft and directional, creating gentle shadows against a muted dark background with a window frame silhouette. The composition emphasizes dramatic hand placement and rich textile textures in a portrait shot by Los Angeles photographer Koury Angelo.
