Strawberry Siren is a burlesque artist in Melbourne, Australia and she wanted me to shoot her in this amazingly detailed gown from one of her shows.
I had an amazing team on the day and the hair stylist had created this wonderful 'do' for the look.
In post I did some tonal curves as well as overlaid some textures to try and give it a classic painterly look to the image. The falcon was added in post and the background is a combination of about 6 different images.
Lighting was a 2 strobe setup that included a rectangular softbox to the front right and a grided barn door behind her.
