Thanks @patrickw-2.
I was not familiar with the work of Gregory Crewdson until you mentioned his name.
It’s interesting that you’ve made the connection with my work, as none of the images I shared were staged and all follow the strict journalistic ethics we have in the U.S.

@martye It wouldn’t take much to put up a small piece of black cardboard and doing so can save you hours of work in post processing.
Off the top of my head, I can see using something like a lightweight Manfrotto Nano light stand:

I think @loki has the right idea. Like Beth, I haven’t used the burn tool in a long time, at it’s much easier to layers and layer masks to be more precise.
IMHO, since you’re already crossing the ethical threshold of heavily manipulating the image, it would be a LOT easier to do one of the following:
