In this shoot, we were inspired by the legendary image of Marilyn Monroe. We shot in the studio using a constant rgb color light, in post-processing I made the background more saturated.

Love the shot, but for my own artistic learning, did you mean to cut off her elbows? Was that a style choice?
I like the symmetry of both cut off evenly, but I'm curious if you had another version without this crop and what the difference would be like?
Nice studio work nonetheless.
if my memory serves me correctly, in this photo I initially did not center the model very accurately, I had one elbow cut off. but I liked her expression so much that I decided to crop even more and cut off both elbows)
Nice. I think that was a good alternative and created some symmetry too. Great shot, I was just curious. Thank you for the reply.
