 PB to date...a little disappointed just because it was above a 7 yesterday and then some trolls came through. Seriously though...if you have never shot in a studio...you would never be able to tell that this shot rocks! just look at those rim lights...hell yes!

This is a really great photo, I would use a little more diffuser on your lights but over all the lighting is great.
Did you use 5 lights?

Lighting: 1 overhead 6' softbox. 2 kicker lights at 45 degrees each side. 1 Alien Bee (1600) with beauty-dish for the key light & a Lastolite Tri-lite reflector (tri-flector). I also have two large cutters to stop flare.

Lots of time balancing everything and what not...

very pretty girl, very nice lighting,but something (to me) is awkward about the crop at the elbow. minor nit-pick though

excellent studio work - lighting is perfect, details on her face and eyes are spot on and the pose is relaxed and confident

I don't normally give such great scores to this type of portrait, but you just got it right. I love it.
