This was done for my cousin and her daughter Gabriela (the model). It was for her baptism and my family was "demanding" for me to take pics... So I did the all "photojournalism" for the ceremony but after I saw this tree with a cascade of orchids on it... I just had to take a pic of Gabriela there and I did... And I love b/w so I did the portrait like thatand gave it a high contrast (yes it is on porpuse). I like the "toning" the contrast gives on her skin and face, it reminds me of the old pictures done in "platinum". I just hope the mother of Gabriela and her like the picture.
