Description

An editorial portrait features a Black man standing on a rooftop terrace against a backdrop of towering urban skyscrapers. He wears a dark denim-style jacket over a lighter shirt, dark trousers, and white sneakers, posing casually with a gentle smile. The photograph was shot outdoors in natural daylight, capturing a candid, documentary-style moment with soft textures and warm color grading. Menelik Puryear captured the imagery for The Journal for Mr Porter, with retouching by Nicolas Beltramino.
