p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · R & M - Harlem (NYC) Engagement


I grew up in Harlem and still have a lot of friends there so it's always good to go back. We didn't grow up together but he is a really good friend who ended up moving there. Oddly enough this is my first session of any kind that was shot in Harlem. Their wedding is this weekend. Here's the e-sesh.

5D3
40mm Pancake
45 tse
Sigma 85

Great set Alan. Always love your work.

Might be just me but I get a film style texturing from this set... Just has that feel. I like it.

Alan, I like the set quite a bit.

Just a little note, the way the light comes onto her dress in #4 kind of makes it look a little like you can see through her dress. Ymmv.

Nice set. I like 2, 6, and 9. I feel that there's too much going on in 3, and I can't focus on the couple. Maybe the shot would've been stronger with more DOF where they separate a bit more.

Like this a lot, Alan. Really like #5.

Just curious... why did you go with different processing on this one? (no fading)

some good shots in here Alan.

thoughts...
#2 ... just wish you could have panned a little to the left and still let the gentleman walk into the frame.
#3 he has this scowl - at least that is what i first thought of.
#4 ...lighting on her and the dress. hot spot on the legs bring attention there in stead of her face.

5/6 nice.
#7 the composition gives more importance to him. i would crop off space on to his right. bring her into more prominence. The lines in the image direct the viewer to her.


1/9/10/11/12/13 sweet ... did i mention sweet.

just my 2 cents.

it will be cool to see the images from the wedding.

Thanks for the feedback guys.

There was a really quick turnaround on this one. I shot their wedding this past weekend.....6 days after the e-sesh.

Thanks.

What part of Cali? I need to get out there at some point. Pebble Beach is on my bucket list.
