This model had long hair that went down the length of her back and decided to cut it all off and donate it to cancer patients, so we did a silhouette shoot to commemorate the occasion. I used rgbw bulbs in a softbox positioned about 45 degrees behind on each side and set the colors I wanted. The most important thing for me was to angle the lights at a way to accentuate the cheekbone on one side and make sure I had a catchlight in the other side.

Well done, really loving this. Jaw is on point, and I love the blue on her eye. Only thing I'd love is just a *tiny* bit more light on her front eye, just because (at least on my screen) the eye looks a bit like an empty socket from the slight highlights around it. Just the tiniest bit of a catchlight in her eye though...

Great job!
