A photo where you cannot see the subjects' faces is very mysterious and interesting. As a Toronto wedding photographer, I am sure I have not seen too many photos like this one. The background could be a city scene, an indoor space, a building or a forest. The subject could be a man, woman, child or animal, but in general, it's always something unexpected.
It is also very difficult to judge the emotions of the subjects. In many cases, it's impossible to tell. But what makes an image good or bad is the quality of its lighting.
The photo taken at Old Mill Toronto, was not overly manipulated, but there were some minor adjustments made to the lighting. The photo was also well composed. There are no distracting elements in the image such as distracting colors, or other objects that could take away from the focal point.
I think that this is a great example of how light and posing can create mood. I would argue that this is a good example of the light used being at an interesting angle to the subject.
In my opinion, it's a very well balanced wedding image. The light on the bridesmaids is very soft, which I love. The picture is also very sharp. The right side of the photo is very strong, with a little bit of texture, but not much. The background is also nice. This is a very good example of what I mean when I say "at an interesting angle".
