So i have been slowly going through the Walters' wedding photos and i have begun to edit them. And to be honest, i had forgotten how much of a creative process editing really is. From know what works in what situation, what colors and how deep shadows need to be, to making sure that you dont let your creativity overblast and completely ruin a photo. I think i am reaching a perfect balance right now. I am just working on the base edits so far, nothing as major as blemish removal yet, just your regular editing through "Lightroom". The photos are starting to look great, the have enough traditional wedding feel and just enough of my edge and style. Both of which compliments the other well! (hah in my opinion anyway) But my edge and style really comes out in the editing and that is what Sam (the bride) wanted. I love deep shadows and high contrast, but done tastefully for the most part. And what is making this editing process longer is the amount of photos i took and the fact that its my first wedding and i am not exactly sure what brides and grooms look for in photos. So i am doing what i can and what i know to make them look great and hopefully they will have many great photos to choose from.
This whole process has been such a learning process. I know so much more now about wedding photography then i did before and its a great feeling. and as i edit this photos and see the beauty and the happyness in them, i cant wait to see the looks on Samantha and Ian's faces when they are done. I will be posting one sneak preview photo below. Be watching my fan page on facebook for updates and the full album coming soon.
