If any of you look at other photography sites, especially wedding sites, you have surely noticed the big trend right now is adding textures to images. Textures are overlays that give a worn, scratched or vintage look to the  images. As any new "fad", they can be way overused…but done tastefully & with the right image, it can really add an artful look. I did an engagement shoot last weekend, and as I was working on the images it occurred to me that this series of umbrella shots may work really well with textures. I think they have a vintage look, suggesting longevity…perfect for an engagement. I’ll show you without – and with texture – and let me know how you feel about the look. If this is something that proves popular, I may start showing some of my portrait images with this treatment.
Without texture (don’t they look great? -

With texture (I hope you can see it on a small screen) -

And can you see this Storyboard as a huge canvas over a headboard?
