Back Yard wedding, trying to capture this beautiful picture with fillies grazing in the background. To our surprise the fillies had an entirely different perspective of our idea. This is the show the fillies put on for us. One girl peaking through to see what was going on and the other girl trying to steal the brides wedding hat. Priceless!

The horses expired the idea of taking the photo. When capturing a wedding, we often try to fix the personalities of the bride and groom to their way of life, or something that important to them. These fillies are the couples pride and joy. Wanting to capture the fillies in the background, however the girls surprised us and decided to be mischief. As you see one girl is peeking through to see what is going on, while the other girl is deciding to steal the brides wedding hat. This image today is very important to them and memorable. Knowing this was a strong possibility is why this shot was inspired for us to take.Editing
We bring all photos into light-room, with color adjustment and enhances, some dodge and burn. This photo was brought into Photoshop and the nik collection color was used to bring out the reds in the background.In my camera bag
