A little wedding pre-shoot

Had an opportunity to do a wedding pre-shoot today; despite being the assistant, the main tog was happy for me to lead as I do like to experiment a little more than the usual hug and shoot.

Meet Richard & Ariana

They met in Bali, Indonesia

And yes, I know, Ariana looks like Myleene Klass. Lucky Richard.
I had fun doing these shots, a few more can be seen on my Facebook (Feel free to like them there )

There was a lesson learnt today though, NEVER try balloons when in open ground... no matter how romantic you envisioned it before shoot, you will get shots like this:

Those before the Green were taken and made 'oldie', portraiture was shoot with a little better colour correction. I will however want to adjust the green a little on some of them...

As for Richard being rather tense, it was his first time getting shot. His wife to be is a natural. And cheers Ray, 'Engagement Sessions'... I learn something everyday.

Well, after calibrating my screen and checking the exported JPEGs, I can see where to greenish hue and all are coming from. I was working on the 'Oldie' look initially and here's a more 'uniformed' look, hopefully, across the range.

*Note to self, always double check the camera calibration settings!*

god your colour is bloody terrible. Looks like you've done a zombie photoshoot!

Is that before or after the correction?

Had the WB on Auto, came back to rectify... bad move!

It's all part of my learning process... PP has always been my weakest point, thus put it up in an open forum. Taking in valid points and hopefully learning from my mistakes.
