It's the Oscars tonight, so a perfect time to show some of these portraits from the latest shoot with Mirjam. We were going for a classic old Hollywood vibe with paramount butterfly lighting. We als ohad some fun with the nice sets at the studio.

You get an Oscar nomination for studio lighting.

Well done, very nice set. #3 and 4 are my favorites.

A terrific set.  3 & 4 are my favorites, too.  #1, in my opinion, is not as strong since the straight on image seems static compared to the others.

I love number 3.

# 1  -  but cut a little below

Thank you all! I agree about the frontal view of #1, but I kinda like it (It's actually one of the trial shots when I set up the lights and she wasn't completely in “model mode”. So to me, it is just more natural). My favorite is #2 which doesn't seem to get a lot of love. But I'm very happy that #3 is so popular, as it is an almost copy of the picture that inspired this set and the model and I weren't really sure if the low angle really works.

Bam! Each in its own way is wonderful!

I agree with your favorite. It's #2 for me.  The director's chair is a nice touch. 

The dress should have a warning attached to it: "I don't do hugs!"
