Fierce and Exotic with Natural Light

I always aim to take portraits that carries emotion. Portraits that talks to you in a way that makes a 2D image expand its depth & captivate your senses. From the posing to the tones and colors I want it all to deliver a specific mood. In this particular shot my mojo didnt come together as fast as I need it to be. It took me 36 takes to finally settle with this shot. Every frame felt an element missing. That element that captivates my attention. Each shot im tweaking the model's pose, the way her eyes look at me, set her up in a particular angle that best shows her beautiful features. Then finally the 36th take, something extraordinary at last got perfectly framed.
