Bridal Garden

Thursday 02 July 2009 at 5:08 pm.

I had the pleasure of shooting with Mike Garrard yesterday at Danesfield House.

Despite the baking weather I had a tremendous days shooting. My hope is to process all the images over the coming days, but picked out this little gem as a taste of things to come :)

Canon EOS 5DmkII, Canon 50 f/1.2L, ISO 100

This shot is straight out of the camera with basic RAW processing and a 15% Soft Light B&W layer for just a hint of 'punch'.
