They like the rustic feel of St. Augustine, so that was the venue of our choice. The evening sky was scattered with light patchy clouds making for ample diffused natural light. These are the three best shots. Disclaimer: The above shots are the three best according to the photographer.

Here are the three best from the shoot. The last one has to be one of the better portraitures that I have shot. She is the sister of the groom and was one of the bridesmaids.

This time on a picture of my cousin on her wedding day with her husband and baby. The first picture is the original, the second is cross processed using nEO iMAGING. I havent bought the software yet, so you will notice the software's signature on the top left corner. The third picture is a sepia tone.

I like this effect better than just a sepia (which steals all the colours) or just the original. It gives the picture an antique look and softens the mood a bit. To this very picture, it softens the colours in the frame enough to keep the smile as Abhishekhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09888384739268821710noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8656607971189260750.post-64566201163936812762008-03-17T22:33:00.001-04:002008-03-25T18:57:36.696-04:00Aubrey & Justin My first attempt at photographing a wedding. It was the perfect wedding to photograph. Everything was well planned, no last minute stresses and the bride and groom were the happiest people in the room all day. The day started off pretty cloudy but they moved away fast revealing bright blue skies and a few fluffy clouds.

These street performers bend the truth a lot but there was a certain truth in his claim when I asked him point blank after the show. He got a fat tip that evening from someone who did not have to gather a crowd and toss fire around to make a bit of extra money at age 15.
