The last one, where the smoke is rolling off her hand--- I love that.





Photos by candles are something special. Something about the little island of light, it makes the moment captured seem so much more personal.








Mine is a bit less wholesome:





Getting lighting right for this shoot took a lot of futzing. Candle
light in total darkness was the look I wanted, but I wouldn't have had
the dynamic range to shoot it without losing highlight or shadow. I
ended up having to be tricky with some small lights to garner just
enough non-directional fill light to avoid losing all the shadow detail.
