Leigh Keily, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This striking monochrome portrait features an older woman with dramatic, voluminous white hair that frames her face in a distinctive, cloud-like shape. She is captured with a smiling expression, leaning slightly forward while wearing a dark leather shirt and stacked bracelets on her wrists. The lighting is high-contrast and theatrical, highlighting the texture of her leather garment and the stark contrast of her bright hair against a dark studio background. The composition focuses intimately on the subject, creating a bold and expressive character study. The image is photographed by Leigh Keily.
