This photo was one of many wonderful images from an outdoor engagement session for sister in-law and her groom. The setup was under a tree with a big grassy field behind.

The first step in this editing process was to enhance the exposure of the RAW file a bit to brighten up the tones and create some fill light where needed.

To finish off, I removed the distracting button from the front pocket and applied some selective lens blurring and a final color treatment to further stylize this image.
