Default First studio attempt with real model - is the light right?
5D mark II
sigma 85mm f1.4
1/125
iso100
f/16

It was a first for me in a studio with a dark background... Worked with a 2 flash setup + a reflector.

Thanks for your comments.

It looks very good to me. If I had a suggestion it would be to have a kick of light on the hair, especially on the left of the frame to create some separation from the background.

Agreed with you... the photo looks very good, the only thing that bothered me a lot (my preference) is the framing I just hate seeing the arm going out of frame then coming back into frame... very annoying. Same goes with the necklace bring cropped halfway.

Yes, yu are right this can be annoying. I was going for a close crop of the model... But I could have tried a larger one.

thanks!
