It's definitely been a hot couple of weeks in Southern California lately and photographing a wedding out in the beating sun can definitely make for a challenging shoot. I made sure to have water with me and of course my lipstick tube - to freshen up every once in a while. Wink! I shot most of the event in RAW and tried to use as much natural lighting as possible. The gown was shot using available window light, and the rest of the pics were done at various locations in the gardens. Best time to shoot there is about five o'clock. There are lots of shaded areas and interesting pathways with lovely flowers and whimsical plants. I enhanced the color shots using two of my favorite actions in Kubuto. Lord of the Rings and Daily Multi Vitamin. The others have been enhanced using the Vintage action in Totally Rad Actions. I like Vintage because it looks more like film to me and also adds a kind of ethereal element to the pictures.
These photos were taken on July 11th at the Quail Botanical Gardens.
