Matthew Priestley, Photographer, New York

About

This striking fashion editorial image by photographer Matthew Priestley features a model posing against a clean, neutral backdrop. The subject wears a complex layering of outerwear, including a tan trench coat tied around the waist and dark textured garments on the upper body, complemented by a black hooded headpiece. A large translucent white umbrella is held overhead, creating interesting linear frames and soft shadows across the composition. The lighting is bright and even, highlighting the varied textures of the fabrics and the structured silhouette. The low-angle perspective adds a sense of monumentality to the figure.
