Lovely bride and great ideas for the background. I think I like the less white version as Melody suggested, simply because it shows off the bride better (IMO). Clover

George I like what you have done and like the light pastel background. It is different. I believe that I would lighten up the shadows around the head and as Harry said to lighten up the veil and...

Thank you all for your opinions, comments and suggestions. I don't want to overwork it before I get some idea from the Bride what she might like. Harry, the Church window will not work, but the idea...

The latest rendition in this vein with many suggestions incorporated.....I'm still looking for something along the line of what Harryco posted to show the bride. George

Beautiful George! What program are you using for your extraction of her in the original shot? You got it very nice and clean. That's always the hardest part for me. You did an awesome job and she...

I certainly like either of your last two tries, why not just let her choose which she likes best. The selection is nicely cleaned up now as well. You will wind up with a nice formal portrait from the...

View ArticleRe: The Bride asked if the background could be changed/eliminated
George a great extractor is Mask Pro from onOne. It may not work for you if you are using elements 2 (I believe it works on 5 and higher). It works with Photoshop CS2 and higher. It is not cheap...
