Tomorrow, Sunday the 14th,  we’re donating our time and expenses to photograph The Reindeer Ball, supporting abused and neglected children through The Mercy Foundation and A Child’s Place. If you’re attending the ball, please stop by to say hello.

I’m putting the finishing touches on some very cool wedding albums. Most of our work is actually after the wedding. We spend a lot of time on creative design and making each and every photograph look it’s best, enhancing and retouching for blemishes.

Here’s a couple of before and after samples from an album I’m working on today.

The final version after color and density correction and some selective highlight and contrast filtration.

I knew I wasn’t going to leave the other figure, but wanted to have some extra room for cropping.

The final version – this just worked best in sepia tones with some selective darkening or burning in, to enhance the mood – toned down the graffiti on the wall.

Barb and I hope that everyone is having a wonderful holiday season!!
