The Wedding Gift : Terence & Melissa

Photo editing to some might be a minor task..

Not for me though.

No matter how many pictures/photo that i have worked on before..there are still a lot more to learn..and improve. And i have to say that not everybody will be happy with your work, ideas..or perspective on how to 're make' a photo.

But i am glad i've got another happy customer.

Actually four happy customers, who decided to make the picture below as a wedding gift to the couple.

This is the original picture. Tell me, what come across your mind when you see this..

For me..this is such a beautiful moment. Perfect expression. Perfect smile.

Let me share with you a few tips on the many ways you can it more special by bringing out the best.

1. Crop the moment.

Make sure the picture is balanced though. Try your best to get rid of unwanted element in the main frame.

Eg: the incomplete writing at the background.

What about the champagne glasses..?

2. The disappearing act.

The dark colour of the man's coat make it easier for you to clone the colour.

Tadaaa..you just need to take careful steps in making it perfect. Don't worry if it doesn't look prefect (yet) hehe..there's always a way to make it done. *wink2..

3. Shut the distance.

Pull the two of them closer together. Isn't that better.

oh, and i decided to 'disappear' the red thingy at the back as well.

so..urm..finished? 

Not quite.

4. The wordings.

It makes everything else false into places.

with a little finishing touch here and there..you've got..

Melissa and Terence.

I truly hope they liked it.

..and i really hope that it's the perfect Christmas gift for them.
