About the image

Where the white speedlite key light shines (below line-of-sight, slightly camera left) the skin and clothing exhibit natural colours. Where leaves and branches come between the key light and model, reds and green tones appear, from gelled speedlites. To give some texture and separation to the plants on camera left, a speedlight was gelled blue (full CTB?). A slow shutter speed and deliberate camera pan movement, created a slight dark edge where the sky comes into contact with the model, on camera left.
