Close up portrait of a man wearing a ribbed turtleneck pulling up the corners of his mouth with his fingers in a forced smile

Nicholas Maggio, Photographer, Los Angeles

About

This black and white portrait features a middle-aged man with messy hair and short facial hair wearing a ribbed turtleneck sweater. Both of his index fingers are placed against the corners of his mouth, physically pulling them upward into an exaggerated, forced smile. The lighting is bright and even, highlighting the texture of the knit sweater and facial features against a plain, neutral background. The tight framing focuses closely on the subject's expression and hands.
