Jerry & Erica...

Jim is responsible for these.... he is to blame for these amazing photo's!
With the amount of weddings that we see, there are some that you are just drawn to. This was one. As Jesse and I were looking at these, we both kept commenting on what a cute couple Jerry & Erica were and how much love we saw in all the photos. They seemed so happy and free-spirited. Jim also told us that he had a wonderful time spending the day with them.
Here Jerry is peeking at Erica while she is praying...

I love the feeling you get as you look at this photo

This one is just amazing~


And as I promised... a before and afters!
The original is rather hazy, their faces are on the dark side.
BEFORE:
On this, I warmed the photo up, brightened their faces with the yin/yang tool. Enhanced the blues and greens, and finished again with boutwells magic glasses. With just a few minor changes on these 2 examples I have showed you, you can totally change the look of an already amazing photo and turn it into an extraordinary photo!
AFTER:
How did Jim get the bird to fly directly above them, and the other birds to stand in a line at the end?! (Great job Jim!)
And as I have already said before, It makes such a difference to just relax on your wedding day, be yourself, and have fun. Don't be afraid of getting a small stain on your gown(it can be cleaned... they have professionals for that)and you will end up with some of the most incredible photos on your day.
Here I used a textured overlay.


Thanks Jim for shooting your best wedding yet. Thanks Jerry & Erica for being so in love. And thanks to Jesse for the totally rad actions :)
