Description

A medium studio shot shows a young adult African American man, closely cropped from the chest up, glancing slightly down at the camera. His expression is neutral. He wears a dark, wide-brimmed top hat with a solid ribbon. A silky scarf with stars is knotted at the base of the hat and drapes down his left side. He has dark, natural afro hair and light facial hair. His jacket is silver and black sequins with a subtle chevron pattern. The background is plain light grey. There is soft, diffused lighting.
