This is another one of my favorite outdoor images from last week's Master Class.  The rich fall foliage really complemented Amber's super tan skin and blond hair. The image was made in a small city park in downtown Cincinnati, Ohio.  Most of the leaves had fallen from the trees, but the long lens I used disguised that fact pretty well. The long lens and larger aperture also easily isolated Amber from the background which brings the viewer's attention directly to her. The repeat of the arches in the background also help direct the viewer's eye directly to our subject.  All and all, a very pretty outdoor bridal portrait. Camera specs: Canon 7D fitted with 70-300mm IS DO lens at 180mm, F5.6 @ 1/160 second, ISO 200.  Enjoy!  -David
