What inspired you for this shoot
Directions
Describe how you spoke to your subject(s)
I just asked them to turn their faces towards the light and cover their eyes but feel their connection through their hands.
What did you say?
Put your hands over your eyes and just relax, feel that light that surrounds you.

Calm
Composition
The composition is simple but very focused on showing the couple “embraced” by this light that entered the window and formed this texture on the wall. About the couple’s pose, I looked for symmetry between the two in their movements and connection so that I could obtain a balanced photo.

Describe how you spoke to your subject(s)
I just focused on the bride’s hands because there was a point of light there and it would be better to get a perfect focus.

Light & Weather
This light came in from a bricked window, so it formed a totally different texture. It was close to afternoon light, so it was still pretty intense. It’s always tricky to work with harsh light, but it’s always an incredible challenge.

Editing Workflow
How did you edit this image?
I really wanted to reinforce the idea that this light painted the couple, as if they were part of this texture, so I used some radial filters and brushes in lightroom to darken the edges and bring more light to the couple as well.
Editing Software

“Fit” the couple perfectly and symmetrically in this light.
