Beautiful Shot!

Great

A classic lighting set-up but a totally unique result. Love the simple, low make-up styling.

Beautiful!

I'd like to see this with a 135 from a distance. Her features are distorted by the closeness of the lens. the tip of her nose is a distraction form the beauty of her eyes. Maybe take a little brightness off it? This portrait might benefit from the gaussian blur mask in PS: where ou make a copy layer on top and blur it. Then erase holes for the eyes (etc.) to show through razor sharp. Then punch up the eyes for more 'pop'. It's a tried and true technique that never fails to please.

Do you have an example of this technique, sounds intriguing.

Love the DoF on this, all the important elements brought to the front of the image allowing the viewer to focus on clear discrete aspects of the model.
