Congratulations to Lisa_Holloway for winning Feature Thread of the Week with 5 votes - View Previous Winners
Haven't posted here in forever, but my eldest daughter is getting married! She and her fiance came to visit this last weekend and we did the engagement portraits in the beautiful fall colors up in Glacier National Park. Just started editing and wanted to share a few.

You went hunting for good light and wow did you find it!
Was this Canon 5DIII? Did you have an off camera flash? The couple are really well lit.

congrats! always top quality work.
I recall all your kids were small, but I guess it's been a while since I've been active on FM. Where does the time go.....

Really well done! You really have an eye for lighting, whether this is natural light or not. I'm guessing this is natural light, but I honestly can't tall and that is a testament to you being a very good photographer.

Congrats to your daughter and the couple and you as well. All grown up and moving into the next phase of life
Really nice work, #3 is a fav, and appreciating 4,5 and 8 as well. Lovely work in your presentation and use of light and color and depth.

Standard poses, and composing using only tele lens.
Im sorry Lisa, but mainly because of this is I found this set quite dull.
It's just... there is no "air" in these images (compressed background in every picture)
Scenery is just asking for using 24mm or 35mm lens!
And why not experiment with different angles, like shooting from low angle or from the hip?

Really gorgeous set. I think the one after the black and white is just a standout.
I am going to say the 2nd is my least favorite, probably because I have a very scenic local pond and I have ended up shooting downhill in the same manner.

Well done Lisa! The fall Glacier setting and your daughter's dress color work really well together.
4,5,8,9 are my favorites.
Thanks for sharing your family photos with us. It's been a photo journey watching your kids grow up.
Coincidentally, my son is also getting married (in May) and I appreciate the reminder that I should try to take some photos beforehand.
If I could shoot people as well as you do, I might give the critters a rest once in a while. Goats and Sheep always seem to occupy my time in Glacier.

Very nice set indeed
*** for the ring shot, the focus (pun sort-of intended) is the ring and it is blown out to the point where much of the detail is lost.
Having been a full-time wedding photographer for almost 2 decades, this is a big "no-no" in the industry.
Easy fix (assuming it is a RAW image). Nice composition, though!
