Kim Bridal ~ Vintage Bride part 3

This will finish off my series with Kim for the indoor shots..

this classis pose is designed to show off the back of Kim's dress and with Kim looking over the shoulder it becomes just perfect..

one of these photos will end up in a Billboard in town here..

this is the second of this 3 part series..

Kim is stunning and i had to make a photo that showed off the store and her beauty.. and the dress is like wow too !

i am glad i make some art like this for the store owner..

you have to have trust in yourself when going out on the job, admittedly i was super nervous on this because i was stressing out a little, putting too much pressure on myself..

the window light was faked by my Alien Bee AB1600 with a PLM for RIM lighting thru the store window..
i was iffy if it was going to work but it worked out to provide that dreamy sun light that wasn't there.. haha.. just faked it..

and the front lighting was the Elinchrom Quadra.. boomed by my friend Ryan O Hicks..

photoshop work was

1. desaturate layer
2. rust color
3. texture layer for noise

    I love the post treatment - the "fake sun" works very convincingly as well. Do I really have to say it? - the lighting is perfect!
