Micaiah Carter, Photographer, New York

Description

This outdoor portrait captured by photographer Micaiah Carter features a prominent subject standing on a dark, rocky outcrop near a coastline during golden hour. The central figure is a black woman with voluminous natural afro hair, posing confidently with hands in her pockets while wearing an oversized beige blazer over a yellow top, relaxed-fit blue jeans, and light-coloured sneakers. Warm sunlight casts long shadows across the uneven terrain and illuminates the multi-story buildings lining the elevated background. In the middle ground to the left, a smaller figure stands near shallow pools of water among the dark rocks. The natural lighting and warm colour grading emphasize the textures of the stone, clothing, and surrounding coastal environment.
