Quite striking. Direct flash above and to her right with a diffused fill to her left?

Mike, thanks, and you're close.

One head with standard 'zoom' reflector [Profoto] racked all the way out for the tightest beam. On top of that, I used 18" of black-wrap to form a snoot. The fill is provided by the off-white building next door.

I like this a lot. It's sure different for fashion and it has a strong "feel" to it.

I agree with Jeff: a very distinct "look and feel" to this image, and I like it a lot. The model isn't very clearly separated from the background on my monitor (dark blue background - black dress), but I still like it.

What most aspiring photographers forget is that it all starts with the composition - as here.
