Irene

The first thing I noticed about this piece was the stiking juxtaposition of the model, Irene, and the set, the sofa. Her soft, light-toned body stands out well against the darkness of the plush couch and she seems to be enveloped within it, the pearl hidden within the clamshell if you will. The shell opens and the treasure reveals itself. The contrast is beautiful! The lighting is used perfectly once again, pulling the scene together and highlighting our model beautifully with soft tones. Though the scene is explicit and her pose and expression enticing, with her staring directly into the lens, the theme is still artful and exotic rather than erotic and exploitive. One of your gifts in this particular field. Nice shot!
