Chiaroscuro






Chiaroscuro is an art term that means having a strong contrast between light and dark. Caravaggio is famous for his use of chiaroscuro to create drama in his paintings. We get some really great morning light in West's room and a few of the photos from this morning's shoot illustrated the concept of chiaroscuro beautifully. Others were just plain cute. I hope you enjoy the results!
