Thanks to everyone who left a comment. This was such a fun challenge to shoot and yes it is a self portrait.
Pretty straight forward really, indirect light off a reflector. Selective dsat, increase contrast, some dodging and burning and neat image.

This is a great shot, congratulation on the 4th place finish. I think this shot deserved to be on the front page, but it is still a nice finish. The lighting on this is really awesome and the red streak in the hair and lips really brings this image together. I am sure you aren't as evil as you appear in this photo, but the photo is very convincing otherwise!
Excellent! The low desaturated image and yellow flame really compliment the contrast. Easily my favorite dress up shot from the challenge. Nicely shot and very much spooky themed.
Coolish spooky image. Well executed with your soft lighting, composition, her make-up, stare, the b/w and dashes of color...man I love the white candle and how it leads your eye into the image!! Well done!!
