The look I was going for was 'Afro-Caribbean Mona Lisa'. Not in composition or style but more trying to capture its essence.
Key light was a speedlight in an umbrella and a silver reflector beneath it forming clamshell lighting(camera right).
Rim light was a speedlight in a reflector bowl(behind and camera left of model).
The backdrop was the view of a park from a balcony.
