Pascal Schonlau, Photographer, Berlin

About

This studio portrait captured by photographer Pascal Schonlau in Berlin features a striking close-up of a Black model in profile. The subject's dark skin is illuminated with soft lighting that highlights the musculature of the arms and torso as they stretch forward across the frame. The composition uses a smooth horizontal orientation against a minimalist warm beige and white split backdrop. The clean studio aesthetic focuses purely on form, texture, and light, creating an intimate and sculptural study of the human body.
