Hi JJ - thanks :) Lighting was indeed a beauty dish. A small (18") white Elinchrom dish only just out of shot above her and a lastolite Triflector in front to throw some light back in to her chin and around her face. No backlight - just a simple radial gradient in Lightroom. There's a little more post/re-touching on this shot than I'd normally do - that was the kind of look we were after :) Cheers, Nick.

One of my favourite lenses is my Macro Planar. Love it as a portrait lens as well, and the excellent Zeiss hoods help avoid flare in the studio like no other. :)
