Shaniqwa Jarvis, New York

Description

This striking monochrome portrait features a woman with voluminous, textured curly hair looking back over her shoulder toward the camera. She wears a heavily textured, patterned jacket while embracing herself with one hand visible across her chest. The high-contrast black-and-white grading emphasizes the rich textures of her hair and attire against a plain light background. Captured by photographer Shaniqwa Jarvis, the composition employs soft directional lighting to sculpt her profile and features. The intimate framing creates a moody and contemplative atmosphere.
