Thank you Scott!

Just one strobe in front of her and slightly to the right and she is holding a homemade reflector I made it from a piece of cardboard covered in crumpled up foil. It helps put a "twinkle" in the eyes.

Yea it does! Did you diffuse the flash at all? because it it looks like you used a softbox or umbrella.
