Creative use of lighting and shadow. This worked well for this reluctant teen. The conversion to b/w came later. She is the daughter of a co-worker. We spent a considerable amount of time in the studio laughing and letting her know that she would be safe and that nothing harmful would come of the photo. Teens are so very sensitive and concerned about how they present to the world. This fascinates me because so many have a brash and defensive posture that pushes adults away. In reality so many of them are cream puffs just trying to figure out how to get their emotional and quickly changing physical needs met. I think she will enjoy this photograph.
