achuka says:

really is knockout - it's that chance distant (lone) figure in the waves that adds dramatic counterpoint to the freezeframed spin

Hmmm, did anyone notice the surfer behind, at the right corner? I tried to add a note about it but couldn't.

Really sweet moment you caught there, sara.

Just wonderful. Portraits like this say so much more than static, posed ones.

wonderful light. She just glows.

Just excellent! I don't know if I'd ever have the guts to shoot a wedding. I'd be too afraid I'd screw up. Luckily, you don't have that fear as you've taken some amazing photos!

Great memories preserved by you here.

When women dream about getting married, this is the moment that they envision. You nailed it. Clearly, you're on to something here...

Sara Heinrichs (awfulsara) says:

:) thanks thanks!

I'm so so touched by your comments, all of em. Specially the ones about actually making an income... ;) Loke was a lucky devil - she got me last summer for a reeeeeally good price, and I had lotsa time to learn & grow before shooting these. And of course, a totally amazing couple helps make things turn out totally amazing!

Sara Heinrichs (awfulsara) says:

good choice good choice ;) so Loke... surfer dude? or no surfer dude...

D LeRoy [deleted] says:

Wonderful. Romantic. Timeless. Heroic. I love his uniform and how effortlessly he twirls his beautiful bride about, while remaining totally upright. The fading light and billowing gown also add to this moment. Congratulations to you.

vagabondrhythm says:

I love it too! Just wondering, would it still look natural if you warmed up the tones a bit. Just wondering what would happen .. it's such a great image but the color is so grey.
Posted 44 months ago. ( permalink )

Sara Heinrichs (awfulsara) says:

Not a bad thought! Wouldn't want to warm up the whites of her dress much at all, but the skin tones and background could be warmed. Then again, the cold sea is rather indicative of this area, so a slightly bleak feel fits in a strange way too. :)
Posted 44 months ago. ( permalink )

vagabondrhythm says:

Hope you try to do a warmed up version. I'd love to see it. The image is just soo great. I can see what you mean with the bleak feel fitting, but . . still hope you experiment. Cheers!
