Mark Elzey, Photographer, London

Description

This striking monochrome portrait features a Black man framed closely as he holds his hands up to frame his face, partially obscuring it. He wears a dark tailored suit jacket with visible buttons on the sleeve cuff, paired with a collared shirt and tie. The high-contrast black and white grading emphasizes texture, light, and shadow across his skin and clothing. Shot by photographer Mark Elzey in London, the composition creates an intimate and contemplative mood with a shallow depth of field.
