Description

This intimate close-up portrait features a woman with her eyes closed, holding a cigarette between her lips. The scene is bathed in dramatic red lighting that highlights the contours of her face and hair while casting the background into deep shadow. Shot in a vertical format, the low-key lighting creates a moody and cinematic atmosphere. The subject wears a dark high-necked garment that blends seamlessly into the black surroundings. Photographer Rayan Ayash captures this striking study in contrast and color.
