I love backlight. I love backlight. I love backlight. There! Did I say it enough? Romantic, soft, flattering. I always have a wedding guest ask, "Isn't the sun supposed to behind you?" or "Why are you shooting into the sun?" Well, I just smile and thank them for their help, but really, the feeling that is created by backlighting your subject is just plain sexy. The top image was taken with my new baby, the Nikon D700, and the bottom one with my workhorse, the Nikon D3. Raw files tweaked and played around with a little, but not too much. Thanks to Jen and Liam for trekking across the sandbar (Jen was actually carried out there!) and making my job so easy. I love backlight and I love what I do!
