The shoot itself was done in my studio, but was done in Infrared, with the subject/model obviously "warm" from normal body heat, and a blow-dryer, and the background cool. That created the inverse effect, where the model goes white and the background is the contrast....the opposite of a normal shoot where the subject is intended to be vibrant. The post-processing effects are done with layering in PS, essentially replacing the dark with high saturation patterns. Hope this helps!!

This is the original Infrared Image before post-processing.

Wow! That is a lot of work.

Did you remove the infrared filter built-in in your camera?

@Bertrand No I added the lens filter below and increased exposure time
