Robbie Mailer-Howat, Photographer, London

Description

This extreme macro photograph by London-based photographer Robbie Mailer-Howat focuses tightly on a person's lower face. The composition centers on parted lips coated in high-gloss peach-toned lipstick dusted with shimmering gold glitter, revealing white teeth within. A silver horseshoe barbell septum piercing rests prominently in the nose above the upper lip. The lighting is soft and direct, emphasizing the glossy, wet textures of the lips and the metallic sheen of the jewelry. Captured with intimate framing, the image highlights intricate cosmetic details and textures.
