This Christmas portrait of a beautiful young mother-to-be came about as I  researched other portraits online. I have had the red fabric in my studio for some time but had not had a special occasion for its use. The model was wrapped in the fabric and a fan created slight movement. As I assessed the photo I had made, it came to me to create more drama and interest with the satin material. The finishing touches applied to the surface of the print suggest a glamour and grace worthy of this beautiful, expecting woman. At one point as we neared the end of the session, she confessed to feeling a little dizzy. She delivered a healthy baby boy two days later.
