Description

This portrait features a black woman with long black braided hair styled into delicate loops across her forehead. She wears striking gold-tone facial piercings, including a septum ring, nose studs, and a decorative lip ring arrangement along her lower lip. Her eyebrows are bleached, and she wears a sheer white patterned top paired with a fluffy white feathered stole dotted with dark spots. The composition is a tight close-up shot against a neutral, plain background under soft lighting, captured by photographer Sam Nixon.
