sunglasses worn by 34-year-old Iranian-Ghanaian woman. Studio setting: • Background: Plain, matte off-white / warm beige backdrop with subtle tonal variation, not seamless—adds texture and realism rather than a pure studio white. • Lighting: Direct, on-axis frontal flash or hard key light, likely from camera position. Creates minimal shadow modeling with slight falloff behind the subject. • Shadow behavior: Soft but visible shadow halo on the wall, indicating short subject-to-background distance. • Environment feel: Controlled indoor studio or makeshift studio setup; intentionally simple and utilitarian rather than polished. • Overall mood: Neutral, documentary-adjacent studio environment—clean, quiet, and understated, allowing the subject and clothing to remain the focus.
