The Wedding

[Kerry Perkins]

Well, I don't have snow and cold so I'll just have to post sunny and warm images. :D

I had the pleasure of photographing the wedding of my friends Doug and Jen, and the joining together of their two single-parent families at Joshua Tree National Park. Alexis and Allie now have a mom and dad, respectively, and it was a sweet event to witness. I used a few filters on the image including Topaz Impression, Topaz Texture Effects, and Alien Skin Exposure 7. The theme of the wedding was Steampunk.

Beautiful, Kerry. The filters work well, and I really like what appears to be the rays of the sun coming from the upper right. You've enhanced what looks like an already-lovely wedding.

[Dennis Bishop]

Very nicely done. Given the location of the couple and girls in the frame, it looks like you'd planned to add the light rays when you took the shot. Did you do them with a brush or a different form of magic?

[Cheryl Slechta]

Hi, Kerry, what a happy event for everyone involved. Your painting does it justice

[gary ellwein]

A joyous event beautifully captured.

Dennis, the light rays are actually a "light leak" effect from Alien Skin Exposure 7. Thanks!

[Nancy Bell]

Joyous & romantic! Those bits of turquoise and glowing whites are stunning against the vintage looking browns and greens of the bkgd.

[Diane Miller]

Nicely done! Love the shoes of the girl on the right!

[Anita Bower]

This is a gorgeous, happy image. I can feel the joy of the wedding. Great composition. I love the attitudes of each of the persons. There is one blotch of blue sky that bothers me a tiny bit. They must be delighted with the photos you took.

Love the light, the colours, and especially the framing. Very well done Kerry.
