I've asked her the same thing a few different times... she's a tough lady to crack! Wont let up on any of her secrets... LOL

Lol, damn!

I told you the actions I used, Chris! :)

The pastel wash is from the Child's Play set here. It's just a simple adjustment layer added on (you can adjust opacity), but I certainly wouldn't have figured it out myself.

Awesome, thank you, Debbie!!

You're welcome!

Ooh, just bought them, and I LOVE that action! It's exactly what I've been looking for...thanks a ton!!

The vintage ones look like they may be fun to play with too (though I haven't just yet)!

Wow, people who know how to throw a wedding RIGHT! Great location, love that it was just family and friends who mattered most. You really caught the emotions of the day.

Heh, yeah, I've been "in the game" much longer! I just found out about that like Sunday night!
I visited the "Where to start in LR" thread and found the "Lightroom Killer Tips" blog. Been watching those videos.
Though I'm still not certain it works that efficiently with CS2? I still export and re-import

Also, to get that effect, I thought it was just a little desat, with a lowering of contrast...

Seems your practice shooting the bow-wows has given you a dog-gone good eye for capturing great images. Bravo on your first wedding!

Nice work, Debbie. You could always just focus on dog weddings!

You could always just focus on dog weddings!

I have seen one -- with multiple human bridesmaids (all decked out in matching bridesmaid dresses) -- but I didn't have my camera with me. I'm more than a little dog crazy and, admittedly, have a tendency to anthropomorphize my creatures, but a full-on doggie wedding may be a bit over the top...

But I'd be happy to take the bridals!
