Nicolas Valois, Photographer, London

Description

A close-up portrait showcases a young, fair-skinned adult male with curly blonde hair. The subject is wearing red lipstick and a dark green coat with a black collared shirt underneath. The person is standing in front of a glass pane, creating a mirrored reflection of their face. The photograph is taken at eye level with shallow depth of field, with the focus primarily on the subject's face and the mirrored image. The lighting is diffused, providing soft highlights and shadows that accentuate the skin's texture and the details of the clothing. The color palette is muted, dominated by earthy tones of green, brown, and the stark contrast of red on the lips. The composition focuses on the interplay between the real and reflected image, creating a surreal, intimate portrait.
