I have photographed a friend's back, lighting it to highlight and exaggerate her scar and scoliosis. I've done this as part of my appearance theme because people can often have harsh opinions on things like this, that are different.
The back was lit with two Bowens lights with soft boxes attached, one in front to the left and one behind to the right. There was also a black reflector at either side to create dark shadows on each side of the model, which I think worked incredibly well. The detail in the skin and the figure of the model is highlighted really well, whilst having subtle shadows all over her back.
I really like how these have turned out, and would definitely like to photograph similar things in this way, but I would like to try using a macro lens to get in close and really highlight every 'imperfection'
