Bride talking to little boy, San Francisco

Location: San Francisco, CA

As you can see by the last few photos I’ve posted, I’ve been playing around with some of the sliders in Adobe Lighroom. The technique is based on this video tip from Lightroom Killer Tips. I recommend checking out the site if you’re a Lightroom user, it has a lot of great information and downloadable presets.

I’m sure this look doesn’t appeal to everyone, but I personally really like how these images came out. I had actually done this particular image as black and white first, and I’ve been going back and forth on which one I like better. You can see the two versions side-by-side here. Feel free to chime in with your opinion in the comments.
