Lauren Withrow, Photographer, New York

Description

A close-up portrait captures a man lying in bed, surrounded by rumpled white and light grey bedding. He has medium-length brown hair, a light mustache, and a joyful expression with closed eyes and a wide, laughing smile. One hand is raised close to the camera lens, partially casting a shadow across his face. The lighting is soft and direct, suggesting an intimate, candid moment captured on film. The composition is tight and vertical, focusing entirely on the subject's expression and gesture.
