Hold her close

Adjusted hands after.

This image was shot during Mike and Kari's first dance. I was going for the painted look and I liked the way it turned out. This is my way of painting right now. A canvas, paints and a brush is just not practical at this stage of my journey. Maybe when I reach the Bob Ross stage I can pick it up again. Who knows, maybe I'll start up again in the very near future.

Mike, I like the overall composition of the picture; however, his fingers look a little morbid. The tips of the fingers just look like they're a little raw.

Thanks for the input Rhett. I was so fixated on the way the dress and veil looked I didn't realize the rawness of the fingers. Maybe if I would've color corrected the hands a bit more (less orange-red), they would've looked more normal :)

Looks a lot more normal now.
