This image of “Vera” (soprano) was taken backstage minutes before the L'elisir d'amore -opera- was presented in Guatemala’s City.
I was aiming for a classic pose that represented her character in the story. For me, not looking at the camera would let the viewer wonder who she was... and more intrigued.
One light to camera left and one reflector on camera right. Shot with a gray backdrop so texture was added later in post.
