Ruven Afanador, Photographer, New York

Description

This striking vertical portrait by photographer Ruven Afanador features two models styled in elaborate, romantic costuming against a moody teal backdrop. A female model on the right wears an extravagant, towering white feathered headdress with delicate floral embroidery on her dress and arm gloves. A male model with dark curly hair and floral accents intertwined in his hair sits in the foreground, wearing an ornate white blouse with a cravat. The lighting is soft and dramatic, casting gentle shadows that accentuate the rich textures of the feathers, lace, and fabrics. The overall color grading leans heavily into cool blue and green tones.
