Spring in Idaho finally...
Had some exposure challenges with this couple due to the skin color difference. I tried to mainly keep the light source on his side which seemed to make just enough of a difference to even it out a little, then just a little dodge and burn.
A really fun couple, we had lots of laughs.
Rest of the gallery is here if you feel like having a look:

I think you did great with lighting, my only squabble is that his striped polo is distracting at times.

Thanks for having a look.
I know what you mean with the stripes.

I second the stripes, just yuck.

My favorites from your gallery: 2, 8, 20 and 29, just for the emotion/goofiness involved.

I'm not crazy about the ones where they're playing quarterback, you can't tell where his hand is (we KNOW where it is, but it doesn't look "appropriate" in my eyes, just me though)

Great job!!!

I had the misfortune/pleasure of driving through Idaho last summer, and just feel in LOVE with the northern peninsula, the bottom have wasn't so great, but the northern part was just GORGEOUS!!! Oh to have seasons ::sigh::

Love your processing on the first one. Her expression is amazing too.
I have shot similar circumstances and it is tricky, and you did a great job.

I think more distracting than the stripes (for me) is his t-shirt hanging out of his sleve.

Thanks L.K.,
Yes Idaho is beautiful, the southern part is more beautiful to me, just not the part the highway goes through. I was raised in Northern Idaho and the weather and pine trees get old after awhile.

Thanks Heather,
I am laughing thinking about all the discussion about the *&^% t-shirt that we had and how many times we had to re adjust the &^%% thing.

I often wonder at peoples wardrobe choices for their portraits and engagement shoots.

.

Ha ha I wondered if you had adjusted it since it wasn't showing in the other sleve....

I know how that goes... fight it, fight it... give up and shoot it anyway.
