Philippe Salomon, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This striking close-up beauty portrait by photographer Philippe Salomon captures a black woman from a low angle against a warm orange background. Her makeup features vivid green eyeshadow applied heavily across the lids, contrasting sharply with deep shadows framing her face. She wears an ornate, dark choker encrusted with large blue and green faceted jewels that rest against her collarbone. The lighting casts dramatic highlights and deep shadows across her features, emphasizing her bone structure and glossy lips. The vertical composition and rich color grading create a bold, high-contrast aesthetic.
