Devon Engagement Shoot (Picture heavy)

Cheers Ksanti. I like to keep the processing consistent, so I cant really apply my usual landscape preset.

Good idea with the shadow, I might give it ago and see if I can make it look natural.
 
Yes, if the light is less than optimal, Ill always put their backs to the sun.

Edit:

Also the blacks can vary allot depending on the monitor. On my ipads, retina macbook and thunderbolt display the blacks are deeper than my dell 3008 and netbooks etc.

From the sample prints from loxley, the images i get from the macs etc, are closer to what I get in print.

And yeah I've started turning people away from the sun if it's an issue and I can't be bothered to set up reflectors and other modifiers. I'm not sure if I just didn't shoot in the sun with my 5D or if the D800 is allowing me that little bit more range to play with that sort of detail in the frame. Still, the flare I'm getting from my Sigma 85 is lovely to work with :)

Yeh there is no way I would set up reflectors etc. not for couple sessions anyway.
I thought about shooting some 'models' off MM for fun, but it seems most don't appreciate the importance of 'good light' and can't understand why early afternoon didn't work for me.

Rhys, haven't you got a younger brother you can take along to hold the reflector? :D

Yeh but he's too shy with people he doesn't know. :o
Actually coming to think of it, he seems to be coming out of his shell lately considering he plays in a band, and has done some local live gigs.

Must be a great place to live. Just as we were leaving we even spotted some dolphins!
