Hello TPF, I'm new to the site and wanted to jump in with a question for all of you knowledgeable photogs.
I've always been fascinated with black and white portrait photography where there's a soft light hitting a small area of the model and then the rest of the model fades to black with the background. No visible traces of a backdrop, just crushed black. I did some searching on the web to try and find a photo that resembles what I'm talking about and I'll post the link below. I understand light positioning, and I have an exterior speedlite which I just started playing with. But I haven't quite thrown the concept together.

Thanks
