Vince and Jessica

Vince and Jessica are getting married on May 10th. No doubt they're wedding day is going to be a lot of fun. 
We did their portraits at Little Island Park in Sandbridge and Back Bay. It wasn't really a beautiful day, but it was warm and the cloudy sky made for beautifully exposed high key portraits. The couple as you'll see are gorgeous and look great together, I didn't do much to these in post process, other than making black and whites and cropping.  Some needed levels adjustments, and of course the usual cutting down the pictures. I took a ridiculous number as always, I ended up posting 179 shots in their gallery. There were actually only 16 different poses, but since I run off a series of shots with each pose I end up with so many. I'd rather have too many, then risk not getting the perfect shot. Now I'm going to post the ones I think are the perfect shots and why.

Lets start with the best - the sun didn't make an appearance until the last 5 minutes of the shoot, with the sun setting, I felt like the lighting was so beautiful giving me some great shots.

Jess looks like a model in this shot.

any capture like this one that shows their emotion, or happiness together becomes a favorite for me, sure I posed them, but how they interacted once in their positions was all them and my job to capture.
this next series I think are just so hot!  
and fun!





they look great together, I love the high key look.  I didn't set out with this in mind, but with such a grey day, this is how it all worked out.  I didn't use a flash at all for this shoot,  the whole time we were in Sandbridge I thought the shots were very white, and I was a little worried they hadn't turned out ok,  I was relieved they looked great.
