 An engagement photo with one person?!? The future groom had just departed the scene and was about to give his fiance a hand up when I saw her sitting there looking like an angel! I hope she enjoys the photo...

Probably my most "Wow" shot of the day after a little photoshop love. This photo shoot was for myUtoria.com.  Utoria functions as an interactive learning experience where teenage girls can sell things to gain knowledge, and earn real money.  You can check them out on facebook or go to the website at www.myUtoria.com.
Ok fine, for all my photography geeks out there, here are the specs:
I used a Nikon D90.  Sunny white Balance.  ISO 500.  I used an 80-200f2.8 lens.  1/400 f5.  Saturation was normal but I used the Vivid setting and bumped the hue up +2.  That gave my skin tones a touch more yellow instead of red which is common when using a Vivid setting.  I softened the photo some in photoshop by reducing the noise.  I clone stamped out a few stray rocks, leaves etc so there were no distractions.  Except for that yellow leaf I see now beneath the slate! Posted by Picasa
