Thank you so much for feedback and warm welcome. Her dress was just yelling this "hollywood-look-a-like" shot. So in a way, I was trying to achieve that twenties-so look.

Here is another shot, more agressive, more "I wanna be gothic singstar" look. Which one works better?



And all the credits for model, she was just great!

WOW!

They are both fantastic. I love the back lighting on the second shot, but I like the mood of the first shot best.

Most well done.

I would like to echo Haywards comments. Wonderful pose. It reminds me of those shots that Cecil Beaton took. Superb skin tones. You have done an amazing picture here. Very well done indeed. Love it!! Would you like to give us an insight into your lighting set and equipment set up. It just seems perfect

Hi,

If you are interested of lighting setups, you can find behind the scenes stuff from our studioblog. There is usually some sample shots and video of the session..

You certainly have an amazing talent. Love your pictures and many thanks for sharing. I'm so envious and wish I was back in my studio!

Thank you for your kind words. I am giving full praise to internet forums like flickr and strobist blog which have helped me here from a tourist shooter. So I want to give something back, if just possible.

And you know, it is always about having time for studio.. I just would like to have 25hrs a day..
