Have you ever captured an image and things just didn’t come together like you planned? This happens to every single photographer multiple times over! This image was captured at one of my Light Exposed Workshops. Initially, I felt things would work. There was lots of chaos happening around us and it happened pretty fast! Because of that, I even had some camera settings wrong. There was also disconnect I felt after I was done. I decided to look at the image to see if I could change my thinking. I did, and I shared the image and to my surprise it was extremely well received.

The take away from this is the location choice and why. I break down with BTS ( behind the scenes ) pictures AND video of why the location was chosen because of light. You will see the RAW image and edited to the final product. This is a hand edit and there are no actions used of any kind.
