Mary Ellen Matthews, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

A vibrant portrait photograph by Mary Ellen Matthews captures a man with a wide smile, wearing tinted aviator sunglasses and a green monogram track jacket with cream and red detailing. A thick silver chain necklace rests around his neck inside the brown collar. His right hand is raised toward the camera, making an explicit hand gesture with the middle finger extended. The background is a solid, warm pink tone with soft lighting and a slight motion blur effect outlining the subject. The composition focuses sharply on the subject from the chest up against the brightly saturated backdrop.
