7/16 Wedding feat. Letenele - DPChallenge Forums

Sarah and I had the pleasure of shooting with Kristina (Letenele) on July 16th for a wedding in Camillus.

Shooting a wedding with THREE photographers maybe just a touch of overkill, but we did pretty well staying out of each others shots, getting interesting things the whole time, and generally having fun. I think Kristina was surprised I'm as ... high strung?... as I am. But I LOVE weddings and I'm superexcitablehighenergy on wedding days. Otherwise, I think we had a good time and we definitely want to shoot more with her. Kristina will also be picking up weddings for Picture Infinity for this year and next, so that's VERY cool for us all! Kristina also has her own site - //www.photokisses.com that you should all check out.

Here are some of the photos Kristina took (click for large images):

And here are mine and Sarah's photos:

All of these are my edits, including her photos. She has an entire set of her take up and she can post the link for that below. :)

Thank you Kristina! We look forward to many more successful weddings together.

All of the photos look very well done. Congrats to all three of you!

But I gotta say, that picture of the little girl dancing is like ... outta this world! Is that motion blur for real, or was it done in photoshop? I'm impressed, either way.

Thanks! Actually it had SOME motion, but I added to it, figuring I could use what was there to blow it away! :)

Matt is there any way I can copy the action you use for your colours? I totally love the bright photos look. I think I presonally prefer it over the normal flatter looks :)

Depends on which photo - sometimes I boost saturation myself. Other times it's Kubota's LOTR action, sometimes it's Nik Color Pack. It really depends what I'm feeling at the time. :)

Okay so where can someone get that LOTR action? Very cool indeed.

//www.kubotaworkshops.com/pages/products/a_product_page.html This is the link to his site - they are $69 bucks I think, but I use a LOT of them for work, so it's worth it. I have redesigned the LOTR for my own use, so maybe I'll post MY action in this thread after.

Do I have to pay you the $69 now lol Although you had to install the thing, so I guess will wanna chage me $100 for your time haha

Thanks for that though. I love how that action looks :)
