Bourke & Thomson - Wedding

I wont go crazy like the last wedding post with too many pictures. 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.

Antique Look - 2

I tried the antique look again. 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 work with Picasa (because it is free), and have just done the sepia tone adjustment and a slight auto contrast/highlight. Nothing fancy.

 

This is a multi exposure of all three pictures. Not having photoshop, I do not have the ability to adjust the transparency of the layers as preferred by Rich Legg. I used Picasa's trusty 'Multi-exposure' under the 'Collage' button. Anyway, here is the outcome:

 

And here is a multi-exposure using just the original and the sepia tone version:

 

I like the second one better. It has the rustic look that I am looking for. You can notice it in the greens, they have turned slightly brown but not enough to look dusty. I do like the dusty effect too, as commanded by Roger Deakins to simulate a dusty southern summer.

Aubrey & 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.

 

 

The bride-to-be looking at the decorations for the first time in the morning.

 

The beachy theme of the venue involved a mixing-of-sand ceremony from the two beaches of the couple.

Yes, I did capture her saying "I do.."
