I did This shooting for a friend (the model) who bought her dress in Japan and would like to thank the designer for her work.
The make-up was done by a professionnal.
I did the post treatment with photoshop (massive work to remove veins to blur the skin and background...) My technique is totally beginner stuff... But I enjoyed the result a lot.
For this one 1 used my studio (background, lights, ...) that is a cheap one but you can have great lights.
