Documentary Medium Format Monochrome Portrait in Natural Light

A documentary-style, unretouched medium shot portrait of a person framed from the upper torso to the crown of the head at eye level, in a vertical 9:16 aspect ratio.

Captured with an 85mm portrait lens, maintaining crisp focus on the eyes and facial features with a gentle, realistic falloff toward the shoulders and neutral background.
