Another Engagement Shoot...

[sando]

This is from one for a bride and groom getting married in South Africa next year. Just wanted a few portraits in the UK doing.

There's more on my website too (http://www.mattsanderson.co.uk).

This is one of my favourites though.

Canon 7D | Canon 17-55 f/2.8 IS | 580EXII placed behind the subject with a 1 stop CTO

Matt, that is an absolutely wonderful shot.

[Big K]

Great shot!! How did you get such nice fill light on their entire bodies and not fill the shadows on the camera side of the rocks?

[Philco]

Really beautiful.

[sando]

Thanks again folks.

Great shot!! How did you get such nice fill light on their entire bodies and not fill the shadows on the camera side of the rocks?

No idea. Magic? :lol: It was just one flash, behind them, so the light that hit the subject was reflected from the walls of the 'cave' and onto them. There wasn't a flash in front of the subject.

Thanks again folks.

That is awesome when simple works out so wonderfully. There is no doubt I would have overcomplicated the shot thinking two lights would be needed and would have totally wrecked it.

Again, great shot and thanks for sharing.

Epic... love the dramatic lighting, and the tunnel, really focuses right on the couple, as well as providing a LOT of interesting shadows/colors around them.

Wonderful.

OMG!
