On Saturday night I brought the couple out for a night shot. As we were about to do the shot it began to rain, so I decided to do a backlit rain shot HoffStyle. As we were taking the photo the manager of the venue came running out with an umbrella for the couple, because he was worried about them getting wet. The shot ended up being what has become known as Tony Hoffer's shot. If you are unfamiliar with his famous shot check out his recent blog post about it - http://hofferphotography.com/2013/10/20/oops-we-did-it-again-a-photo-story/
Tony made this shot famous and many us have a our own version of it. I've done this shot before, but this may be my favorite version that I've done.
This is a single image edited in LR. It's backlit with my 600EX and front lit with another 600EX and a soft box. I did some cloning to fill in the areas where the flash didn't light up the rain (which is quite noticeable to a trained eye).
I'm sure this image will be critiqued quite a bit, because it's somewhat of a copy, but I wanted to share it anyway
