It was taken a few years ago, I did not record the date. The subject collects vintage clothing and she and I share an interest in early Hollywood style photography (i.e. George Hurrell). Lighting was achieved with a Smith-Victor photoflood equipped with barn doors to my left and a reflector to my right. We're getting together again soon to do more work in a similar theme with some of her newer finds. Our goal is not to re-create anything super-realistic which is why we didn't opt for trying to emulate a hairstyle from the period. But overall we wanted to create the "look" and I am pleased with the result.

Excellent. This is something I'd like to play with as well.
