About Another wedding image from a few years back. Sepia toned and cropped in PS, otherwise unaltered.
I am pleased with this one... the bride is being congratulated by a friend or relative (?) and I like the smiling lady "between them" looking on.
A very "lucky" candid capture in my opinion.

Lucky indeed . . . the time to get that smiling BG person is something else! I like the toning and the way the curve of her neck continues uninterrupted as it arches down as the curve in his neck . . . a smooth, continuous line. Well done Aniko!

Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~


Aniko Heart   {K:25957} 4/25/2007
Thank you very much Doyle!

It's capturing these spit seconds in time that makes me happy! (Made the bride pretty happy too... lol...)
As Mark Twain said: "The harder I work, the luckier I get"... hehehe...:)

Wedding shoots are a real challenge, as I'm sure you know. Especially the candid captures...

I think I neglected to say that I had a spot soft filter on the lens at the time... I like them because the centre of the image stays sharp and only the edges are slightly diffused. Very helpful with tricky light and brides wearing all that white!

Best Wishes to you and thanks again!
Aniko :)

Great moment you have captured my dear Aniko:)

biljana


Aniko Heart   {K:25957} 4/25/2007
LOL My Dear Biljana!!! :)

I have shot many weddings and I know of too many that did not last! To my knowledge, I think the bride and groom in this wedding are still together... But I am not certain of it...

I am pleased you like this image, as it was a proud moment for me to see the proof. At the time, I thought I had captured it, but with film, one needs to wait for the results! LOL!

Warm Hugs to you, and I am the bad one... it is 6am again, and I still have not been to bed! OOOOPS!
Aniko :)

Aniko Heart   {K:25957} 4/29/2007
Thank You so Much Dear Shirley!

Forgive my absence... again, or still, Life is hectic and I am not much online (and should not be now as it is after 3.30am)... but my insomnia is rampant, even though I am very tired!

Hugs to You,
Aniko :)


Aniko Heart   {K:25957} 4/29/2007
Hi Nicki!

And thank you. Yes, I like the woman's smile too. :)

I will drop back into UF when next I get a chance. Life is very busy at the moment for me.

Big Hugs to you!
Aniko :)


Shirley D. Cross   {K:145282} 4/29/2007
You are so very welcome, dear Aniko!:)

Very good wedding photograph, Aniko.
Fantastic idea to include the smiling woman. But it is not their mother in law? ;)

Best wishes, Frank


Aniko Heart   {K:25957} 6/2/2007
Greetings Frank!

This was a very "lucky" candid shot. The bride is being congratulated by a friend or relative. It is not her husband. And I have no idea who the woman in the background is, but I am glad she peeped in as I tripped the shutter! :)

Thank you for stopping by and for your kind comments.

Best regards,
Aniko :)
