 Setup at my basement, using an ironing table :) used dark silky scurf to put under the glasses. Ironing clothes holder as a background droplet to hand background sheets on it. Used white bed sheet on it, and another silky white scurf on top of it to diffuse the light a bet, desktop lamp behind the ironing clothes holder as my only light source. Ventilation pipes was working for me as a reflector :)
And a devoted wife that was welling to loan her silky scurfs :)

Steps:
1- Opened RAW by Adobe LightRoom.
2- Adjust picture temperature to 2000.
3- Adjust Blacks to 25.
4- Increased Contrast and decreased brightness.
5- Adjusted HSL levels.
6- Exported to Adobe CS3.
7- Cloned a hot pixel and couple of sensor dust, this is the only spot editing done on this picture.
8- Neat Image.
9- USM.
10- Cropped.
11- Save for web.

The best thing that I am still experiencing is hot to get the picture you exactly after without relaying much on PS. Selected this picture out of 58. I hope you like it.
Kind regards,
