Schön Magazine Split in Two 2025

About

This editorial photograph, part of the project Split in Two for Schön Magazine, captures two Black men seated indoors within a dimly lit wood-paneled room. The primary subject is seated centrally in an armchair, wearing a structured patterned suit jacket with a scarf tied at the neck, gazing directly at the camera with a serious expression. A second man is partially visible in the right foreground in a blurred profile view, also wearing patterned attire. In the background, a desk lamp with a white shade casts a warm, soft glow against the dark wood surfaces and wall paneling. The composition uses a shallow depth of field, directing focus to the central model's attire and expression under atmospheric lighting.
