this image features the butterfly shadow under his nose. the image focuses on his eyes that are hidden by shadow producing a mysterious portrait.
this image is a side profile, where I edited in a lighter purply tone to create contrast from the background.
I experimented with this portrait uses a ring light coming from beneath lighting up the face. this is very hard lighting. the subject is making a strange face to create a more interesting image.
this image uses props to create an effect it has been changed to black and white because I feel it looks better.
