 Wedding shoot for my brother-in-law. My kids with their new aunt.

Thank goodness everybody's got a good sense of humour.

Used my 17-40 f/4 L @ 26mm and 420EX bounced off the ceiling.

Taken in RAW mode, but used attached small JPEG to play with.

In PS7:
- crop
- cloned out a distracting "EXIT" sign above door frame
- saturation, levels, contrast, brightness to taste
- dark outer edge
- created a sepia layer, and reduced the opacity to 50%
- resized, USMed and border

The impudent kids make a great contrast with the glamourous gal. Also very nice color balance. Brings a smile, Thanks.

If this was a "real" wedding shot, I imagine that it will be one of the most treasured shots that they will have! Adorable and sweet, and great lighting!
