Very nice. I'm torn between wanting the background darker or lighter.

I'm curious what it would have looked like if she was more to the left (with the arch around her) and him a little more to the right (with the arch around him).

As it is I really like this photo, but I'm just curious how "set-up" the other shot would have been.

I really love this shot. My only wish (unrealistic) is to keep the same crop, but have her larger in the picture (more in the foreground). I know you can't really do it, but I think all the railings add sooooo much to this, but at the same time detract from the bride.

Originally posted by mpeters: Two flashes Terry? or just one from the left with a white wall or other fill material to reflect back??? Such a pretty balance between indoor and outdoor lighting.

There are two flashes involved, but the 580 on camera is actually pointing to the left to fire the slave I had on a stand over there. So mostly this is just a balance between natural light and the slave.

Without any kind of flash/fill light I would have blown the highlights in the background by trying to keep her light enough. And had I used on-camera flash it would have simply flattened her form and left the image looking like a snapshot (like the one her mom probably got as she was standing beside me taking pictures at the same time).
