For this project i was asked to emulate a well-known photographer's image and style

Original "Hands" photo by alfred stieglitz 

My emulation. I used a black cloth and placed it on the table, my model then placed her hands in that position. I used a softbox placed above her hands, creating a very soft light

Eve arnold's original picture of marylin monroe 

My emulation. I took this picture in my house with a black backdrop over my window, my sister is the model, this photo was taken in natural light with a bunch of curves adjustment layers.
