Photographer: Kristine Ridley
Location: USA

Kristine was able to take a very special moment and emphasize the emotion in it. By correcting the colors and working with levels, shadows and highlights, she was able to put more focus on the bride and grooms face, whereas in the before-photo their faces weren't grabbing enough attention. Color editing really allowed for more emotion to show through since we can now better see the looks on the models faces. The environment of the photo also now has a more magical, warm feel to it whereas it didn't before. I especially love the color editing on the leaves that are up close and out of focus. Kristine utilized this small element to her advantage and created a more lively feel in the after-photo.
