Kendall Bessent, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

A striking close-up portrait featuring a Black woman with braided hair wearing dark oversized sunglasses, hoop earrings, chunky gold bracelets, and sculptural rings. Her arms are crossed loosely in front of her as she poses amidst a heavily crinkled, reflective metallic gold foil backdrop that creates warm, flickering highlights. The low-key lighting and deep shadows accentuate the rich texture of the foil and her metallic glossy lips. Captured in Los Angeles by photographer and director Kendall Bessent.
