Bro, I know u only post pics that u like most. Grateful if you can share why this pic works. Was it the moment of deep thoughs from the bride that triggers ur shot or was it something before and after that makes this image significant.

Tks. :)

This shot was taken just before the groom arrived, while the bridal party are conjuring their evil plans. Our beautiful bride was sitting there alone, with her eyes closed. I can barely begin to decipher a tenth of the plethora of emotions that must be running through her. But rather then asking her what's on her mind, what I did was try to capture the moment the best way that I can, and maybe some years down the road, I can ask her again, what she was thinking at that very instant!

The image may not work for everybody, but to me, it works because, an image have to conjure a feeling/deep thought in the audience (the audience may or may not be a photographer :bsmilie:) and by making you think a little, I have already achieved my goal.

Also, why I chose to shoot it this way, a silhouette showing just that little teeny tiny bit of her facial features. Is to allow the audience just a hint that our bride is in deep thoughts, but everything else, we cannot see or decipher, just like how I was unable to understand completely what was going through her mind at that very moment.

So there u go bro... my thought process, more or less ;)
