I wanted to try out some darker imaginary and luckily, Linda was excited to be part of this project We thought if we should buy some artificial flower decorations for her hair. I'm glad we decided not to since the real ones look awesome!
This is lit with two Elinchrom D-Lite 4 strobes with soft boxes. The smaller one is the main light on camera top left and the bigger one is the fill light on the right side of the camera.
beautiful portrait. I would crop a little tighter and chop more of her arm off - or darken it a bit ... Being the closest to the camera and with the same exposure as the face it grabs too much attention...

Thanks for the feedback! I tried to crop a bit from the lower part of the pic but I think it didn't work that well. It made her look bigger because we couldn't see her armpit that well.
The second and third images are much better than the first one in my opinion. Better balance, better perspectives, and a more classical look. Beautiful lighting, a beautiful lady, and beautifully done.
