San Miguel, Mexico
California Wedding Photography Award - 2202996
"Those rose petals are too hard to resist. Especially when it's a respite from boredom. The wide angle lens works here, because it strongly favors the subject over the background while also providing an all-important scene setter with just enough details from front to back."
