My partner and I went out and got some shots of her in her wedding dress from a couple years ago for me to practice some lighting, and also to get some portfolio shots. We're really excited about these, but I know there's room for growth. One of my fave shots of the whole day I had to toss because of an awkward arm I'd like to get pickier about this stuff! So don't hold back. Here are a couple, there are a bunch more on the blog. Thanks!

I like the 2nd and 3rd one alot! Great job!

My favourite is the third one.

Nice work!

Great shots!

Did you use liquefy on the arm in image one?

eek! yes, yes i did... looks like i didn't do such a great job freezing the area around... where's the dang blushing smiley????

Well, it just looks like her forearm is larger then her upper arm.

Beautiful bride with matching pictures!

the 2nd image is stunning!

LOOOOOOOVE #2 and #3! Beautiful girl!!

What kind of lighting did you use? Off camera flash or just reflectors.
Your work is stunning. BRAVO!

Off camera a la OneLight
Thank you so much everyone. I'm really really REALLY excited about how my work has progressed over the last few months, thanks in LARGE part to OSP!

Amber is fierce! She recently lost a lot of weight, and she was really self-conscious about her arms, so I played a little with the liquify tool. Any tips on using it?

I love, love love #2! It is beautiful! I love the light in #4, it feels really princessish....jeeze, what is with me and strange words today??

Well she is still a beautiful bride for sure.

These are beautiful, and you did a fabulous job keeping all the detail in the dress!
