Traditional Portrait Shoot

I always have a fond of traditional portrait paintings, and those early portrait photographs in the mid 18th century to early 19th century...and i've been waiting for too long to try to do something similar to that style of photography...

Finally I got myself a dark grey backdrop paper that will allow me to take some portrait shots which has that kind of feelings ....

Here's some latest shots I've been using the dark grey (or what the seller calling it "storm grey") backdrop.
