Ryan Young, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This portrait photograph by Ryan Young captures a young Black boy standing on an asphalt street in a residential neighborhood. The subject wears a bright red sleeveless t-shirt with a distinct LA logo tattoo on his upper right arm, looking directly over his shoulder toward the camera with a neutral expression. Parked cars including a dark sedan in the foreground line the left side of the road, while houses, utility poles, and green foliage edge the background under a pale sky. The warm, natural daylight and candid composition evoke a documentary-style feel rooted in everyday street life.
