Close-up black and white portrait of a Black woman viewed through a grid or net, by photographer Patrick Fraser.

Patrick Fraser, Photographer, Chicago

About

This black and white portrait photograph by Chicago-based photographer Patrick Fraser captures a close-up profile view of a Black woman with dark, curly hair. She wears large hoop earrings studded with small light-reflecting stones. A dark vertical element and a diagonal grid pattern partially obscure the foreground, creating a layered, framed composition. The lighting emphasizes the strong contours of her face, cheekbones, and thoughtful gaze. The overall aesthetic is moody and intimate, with deep shadows and high-contrast monochrome tones.
