Lovely shot Chris and the soft light works very well. Very nicely framed too.

Thanks Pete - this was a very fortuitous meeting, as I'd wanted to shoot a model in a more eastern looking head-scarf for some time, and when I was working with Stef on the combined engagement and lifestyle shoots, I mentioned this to her.

Her fiancé (Moe) is Persian, and had given her a number of Persian scarfs - she'd been shown by women in his family how to wear them correctly, and of course a photo of her in a scarf would be very significant for him.

So it all came together for us

If only Persia still existed, you would find me there, taking in all its beauty, preserving it in my mind, wondering if there would be more to find.
Of such beautiful images to occupy my mind as yours here Chris. Such a smooth and delicate skin and light. Wonderfully done.
