Lovely rendering... superb Rembrandt illumination... Excellent key to fill ratio...
Exceptional detail latent within the highlights... so crisp that you can actually see the octabox key (high camera left) reflected in both of Jessica's iris...
Thank you for sharing....
Thank you. I also used a kicker on camera right, level, at about 33 degrees aimed mostly to eliminate shadow on the background and to act as a fill for her left side. I also did a very smart thing. I used minimum pp. Usually, I will do a little frequency separation. This time I did not. I did not even do any sharpening. All I did was to remove one blemish and one pock mark that maybe did not have to go. Oh, I did fill the spot on her ear for her piercing.
