Nice job. Nice catch lights in the eyes. However, I do notice that your subjects right are is lit bright than the left arm.

That's correct. This was a new light setup for me. I have seen different photographers using it and I wanted to try it too. Need to practice more to get light more even.

Location
This photo was taken in a studio near Deventer (the Netherlands). I'm a self taught photographer and I was trying some new light setups.Time
It was still morning when I took this photo! I had arranged two models for a whole day. And each model would bring 3 or 4 sets of outfits. This was her first outfit to begin. My light setup was ready and we just went for it. Both models were absolute great, didn't had to say much and they understood what I meant.Lighting
For this photo I used two lights. The model stood in the middel of the setting. I placed left and right a light which would flash when triggered.Equipment
I used my Canon eos 60D with the Sigma 50mm f2.8. The two Studio lights that were there. Didn't use a tripod.Inspiration
I had seen this light setup on Pinterest from different photographers. The model took this pose and I took the photo. At that moment I didn't direct her how she should pose. It was in the moment and we just went for it.Editing
Not so much when I do a outdoor shoot. For post-processing I use Lightroom and Photoshop. Basically I turned the photo in black and white, played with the black and white curves. Lighted her face a bit up, not much, some skin correction and that's it.In my camera bag
My camera Canon eos 1D mark III with the canon lens 28-135mm. Its my standerd setup when i go outside for just taking pictures. I think its ideal for some allround pictures. The lens is quick enough and everyone can use it.Feedback
That's hard to say for me. Why? Because i'm still searching and trying myself. I knew how the setup was but that was the light setup for a different studio. So I placed the lights the way I thought it was best for the studio were I was working at that moment. Made a test shot and adjust the setup. Made another test shot and adjust again. I kept ongoing until I had it right. What I'm trying to see is keep on going. Don't give up, keep on looking.
