Morgan24

The Morgan series illustrates photographing a black person, or a person of dark complexion.

 

They were all taken within five minutes.

 

First, I interviewed the subject in my office, interested less in her responses but watched her expressions, head movements, and how light from my 'cans' contoured her face.

 

This is a classic Rembrandt low key lighting, also illustrating how a dark complexion is defined more by highlights, rather than shadows.
