wedding photography and photoshop

one of the nice things about doing wedding photography is having the additional option of creative, heavy toning in photoshop. so the wedding last weekend gave me a chance to goof around a little, to do toning techniques i wouldn't be able to do in photojournalism.

this picture in reality has a background in focus and a grey sky with a high sun. with some masking and simple blurring - and with some toning - you can create something a little more dramatic.
