Irving Penn: Light study Observations
I studied Irving Penn's use of lighting and wanted to recreate it in my own photoshoot. I used a single light source to cast a spot light on my model, and then used a reflector to bounce the light back onto the shadow side of their face. I tried to create a contrast shadow on the background to bring out the light on my model's face.

I Think the contrast between the dark and light is levelled just right. When I edited the photo, I tried to show a range of tones. I wanted to show the darkness of the model's eyes and how they contrasted with the highlight on the pupils.
I cropped my photo so that only the model's hand and face can be seen. The background did not show much contrast, so I didn't feel it was relevant in the photo.
