Default Can anyone help me out here??

I'm wondering how to achieve this kind of look that Linnea Lenkus.com does. The look that i'm trying ot achieve is where the silhoutte of the body is showing and the rest is softly shadowed. Mainly what is in her nude fine art/pregnancy shots. Can anyone suggest how I can do this. And when you watch the video you can see some of her lighting setup, but as a newbie I have no clue what any of this is, so....does anyone recognize any of the equipment??

Are there some non-nude examples you can link to here. It is hard to give any specific help to such a general question. Perhaps you could also show a picture by yourself which is as close as you have been able to get?

Alternatively, if you are particularly interested in the nudes, see the FAQ for information about our nudes section.

It's not so much the nudes as just being able to get the light to fall the way she does. How do I link the website to this? So you can see.

I didn't watch the video, but it looks like she uses strip lighting.
