Here is a second image from the same session, same clamshell lighting, but now a 22" beauty dish over her and a medium softbox under her chin - the secondary catchlight has been removed in post.

Her eyes are so beautiful!

Nice work as usual Paco!

I like the first shot best, the shawl give a wonderful softness and I think helps to emphasize the beautiful shape of her eyes. I kind of wonder if a green or blue color would be a nice contrast to her warm skin tone.

Almond eyes are about shape not color, I believe.
