2. Holly Steen (WPD Member & Contestant) - (9/19/2008 6:10:24 PM) It is a moment that isn't about the wedding. I don't think it is as creative as it is all about double lighting. I want to see another shot just so I know it isn't a fluke. The ladies dancing seems very tribal for some reason. I have to look at it again to see if I dig it or not.
1. Caroline Ghetes (WPD Member & Contestant) - (7/28/2008 7:06:18 PM) The lighting in this photograph is beautiful! I love the harsh shadows on the dance floor and there is a ton of emotion emitting from this photograph. I would have liked this shot even better with the bride & groom as the center of attention, but other than that, excellent job!
