black and white Epitome of Beauty

She is a perfect 10. Appreciate any comments.

A great portrait. very special about this one to me is the light play over the shot. Nice and smooth tone all over the face. Great expression and eyes. Lovely done my friend.

Beautiful photo Andrew. Both Technically and aesthetically excellent. Cheers, Laurent.

Gorgeous lighting.

 

The catchlights in the eyes suggest a large overhead softbox and a circular white bounce reflector from below angled towards her. That would explain the soft highlights on her hair and illuminated eyes while leaving the beautiful deep shadows around her neck.

 

Am I correct, or am I missing something? If I am wrong, I'd greatly appreciate it if you'd explain how you lit this shot. To me it is perfect. I dream of a shot like this one.

 

Bravo!

 

 

nice work ... regards to John Wilson too ... for such observation ... very few in PN ...

Excelente encuadre, magnifica luz, B/W. y bellisima composicion, un cordial saludo Andrew.

Love the crop that you chose, nice tone to the shot

 

Beautiful,

 

Both the model and your image.

 

Perfect.

Thanks for your keen observation and you are quite correct. I used a circular white bounce reflector from below angled towards her, but instead of a softbox, I used a remote flash and I attached a device called LightSphere from Gary Wong on the flash unit. Glad you like the catch light on her eyes. Cheers!
