Steven Lippman created the above photograph for Jewelry designer Rosalina and fits into his unique style of imagery. Steven is a high fashion photographer with an eye for stunning images. Each of his images has very precise lighting to set the mood and overall feeling of the photograph. This image of a beautiful young woman in a silky evening dress backlit and sitting on the edge of a banister with a dark foreboding landscape behind her looks as though it could be a movie still for the next big vampire blockbuster. The way the model is in total focus while the rest of the image is blurred adds to the overall appeal of the image. Even though the model is backlit and the front of her is a little on the dark side you can still see the sharp details of the dress, necklace and her face. The backlight also casts a soft halo around her that helps to separate her from the dark gloomy background. As far as an advertising photography I think this image hits the nail on the head, if I were to see this image in a magazine I would stop and look at the advertisement. I would have to say this though I would not know that this was a jewelry advertisement if it did not say so in the bottom left side of the advertisement or if I the viewer did not know who Rosalina was. The necklace is very nicely lit with beautiful highlights on the stones making the necklace stand out in the shot.
