Tom Munro, Photographer, London

Description

A dramatic monochrome portrait captured by photographer Tom Munro features a woman reclining inside a dark, minimal interior. She is seated in a structured leather armchair with her head tilted back, positioned directly beneath a single hanging dome lamp that casts a sharp downward beam. The lighting creates high-contrast chiaroscuro effects, plunging the background into deep shadow while casting a pronounced silhouette on the dark wall behind her. She wears a dark pleated dress featuring striped detailing on the sleeves and a fitted waist. The composition employs horizontal framing with a moody, cinematic atmosphere and careful tonal control.
