Maggie Shannon, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This striking photographic portrait by Maggie Shannon features a close-up composition focusing on two long, neat blonde braids hanging down the back of a subject. Each braid is tied off with a glossy red satin ribbon that forms neat bows with hanging tails. The subject wears a solid vibrant red jacket that creates a strong monochrome color blocking effect behind the fair hair. Direct lighting casts soft, defined shadows of the ribbons onto the red fabric surface. The framing centers on the textured details of the woven hair and the smooth sheen of the satin ribbons.
