About Monochrome Portraits

I shoot these sessions with a specific focus on high-contrast lighting, often using Rembrandt or butterfly patterns to define facial structure. You will notice that I prefer a minimalist approach; we keep the background neutral, usually charcoal or deep black, so the focus remains entirely on your gaze and expression.
