Studio portrait of an exceptionally beautiful woman, high fashion casting, against a tangerine seamless ground at full saturation, evenly lit, matte and grainless, filling the frame behind her. The ground is lit on its own and she is lit separately by one large soft neutral source, so her skin stays its own colour throughout and carries the tangerine nowhere. Her head is high in the frame, turned to a near profile with her eyes coming back to the lens. Matte skin with fine visible texture, two heavy plaited ropes of hair hanging at the sides of her face, long jade bead strands and stacked pearl strands at the neck over a matte black jacket filling the lower third. A russet lip. Cool and evaluating, looking back at the lens, mouth closed and completely composed.
