Blue Eyed Bride

[ChowChi-Ching]

Did a wedding, well actually two, this last weekend, here is a shot I got of Sundays Bride.....

What do you think of this shot? Angle, Lighting, etc.....

Much prefer her right side up - anywhere from looking left to looking right, but not upside down. - TF

[ChowChi-Ching]

I still prefer the first pic, but do you like this better?

[OldClicker]

Yes. Much better. - TF

I really like the first image. For me, the position of the first image is much more pleasing than the second. I think what sets them apart for me is the expression I get from the brides mouth. In the first image her lips look more like a smile to me. In the rotated version, it looks like more of an expression of "hurry up and take the picture, I can't pose like this all day". I realize it's the same expression, I just get a completely different feel from it from the first image to the second.

Only a nit-pick but I would try to even out the tan lines on her shoulders a little bit.

Beautiful shot. I like the first one better also.

[CaraRose]

I tend to agree that the first may be better. Though it works very well rotated as well.

The second works better for me, though I would like it even more if she was looking right instead of left. Nice shot btw. you may want to play with the levels a bit and see if you can get it to 'pop' just a little bit more.

[ChowChi-Ching]

Never really played with levels before.... so, is this better?

[GB1]

Yes. A few small items though (these type shots must be prefect):

I think I would like her complexion somewhere between the first and second. The first looks like she has a tan whereas the second looks a tad washed out.

I also thought of reversing the image, but make sure she is 100% symmetric (most people are not completely so..) or she may be able to tell and say "what the .."

Stuff in her hair - what is it?

[ChowChi-Ching]

ok... I will play with it more... the stuff in her hair is glitter.... everyone had it and it was EVERYWHERE!
