One Moment in Time
A previously submitted image, reworked. I wanted to create a romantic and nostalgic bridal image. Some of you may remember, the story of this dress. I bought it at a flea market for $8. The older girl is one of the teenagers in my youth group, and the little girl is my daughter. I was working on something for my portfolio and they helped me out. The only light used was the available light coming in the church window, the rest of the room was dark except for the other windows.

  Perfect title to a perfectly reworked image! Without the commentary I would have taken this as an actual wedding portrait! Excellent lighting, timing and creativity, Dale Ann!!
Aloha,

  Thank you so much Andy, Mellanie, Stan, Colette, Carolyn, Bill, Dan, Patricia, Kathryn & Darren for your very kind comments. And to Mellanie, Carolyn and Darren, thanks for noticing! I have just been trying to reprioritize my life . . . too much time in front of the computer! I'm sure you know how it is. And Patricia, I'd love to find a dress for you . . . just let me know when!

I'm sorry I haven't been around to comment on all your wonderful work, I'm just trying to get some stuff organized at home and get some business going. I hope to see you all soon! Keep up the great work!
