Canon 40D, Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 lens @ 45mm, f/3.2, 1/250 sec. shutter speed, no flash.
Post processed in Adobe Lightroom, including altering clarity to let some of the face detail bloom in haze. This shot really draws on my personality; I like dreamy, timeless scenes in old black & white style.
I've been shooting weddings for about a year now.
