I have always liked mixing beauty and grit. Most amateur photographers will try to get as much color saturation in an image, because that is what the auto exposure does. But a pro, will actually pull the color out where it is necessary.

The day was 3.14.26 and I photographed an elopement. The ceremony was in front of this make shift backdrop, which was simply a sheet over a circle ring, like a table. Immediately I thought it looked like a huge soft box, so I put two remote flashes behind it and made it so! The bride was a film director and the groom, an actor. It just felt right to do this with them!
