Rhapsody Blue - Implied

[Manfred M]

I find that Rhapsody Blue's hair and outfit complement each other very nicely. This is the first shoot that I did that predominantly had an implied nudity theme (as well as some real nudes). No nudes in this set.

Nice series, you didn't include your setup diagram, it would interesting to see (or explain) where the light was positioned for the first two images. Is that overhead lighting effect from the position of the light or the position of her head in relation to where the light is positioned or bounced light?

Very simple lighting. A single white beauty dish with diffuser just slightly on the camera right side. The light spread from that light modifier is fairly narrow and the light drop-off is fairly sudden. Look at how much darker the lower part of the image is.

Thanks for the diagram, your comment about the darker lower portion has me going back over the images checking out the location of highlights, catchlights, and cast shadows.
