This made me smile...I have those exact shoes
On a more serious note, I feel like she's perched sliding down a wall for some reason...

lovely lighting, which, i suppose is the centerpiece of this photo.
[but i do have to say that i think you could've cooked up something more original than the old tutu and chucks combo. you're a smart cookie. ]

Well I guess there's a reason the tutu and chucks is such a popular combo: it looks good

I LOVE the pic. <3 I especially like the bright red of the skirt.
But how much were the shoes...? If you don't mind me asking.

Whoahoaaaa.
Such a nice set up. Maybe I should try jacking up ISO to obscene amounts instead of just picking an easier better-lit place to shoot.
I like how you post what you did to the image in the description. It really helps!
Anyway, your stuff is always really amazing.

Well with better 3000 watt studio lighting you can achieve the same dramatic lighting effect as this without jacking up ISO. I just used a couple 100 watt bulbs which didn't provide adequate light so I had to raise ISO.
