I think I love adding texture most when I am working with photos I have taken of nature (flowers, leaves, birds, etc.) but using it on a portrait with people would be my second favorite.
Last fall, Andrea and I had the pleasure of shooting Josh and Paige’s wedding photos for them. I have known Josh since he was just a little whippersnapper (he is the son of my husband’s cousin) and it was a joy to be there with him on his special day to capture tender moments like this one…
Which was, of course, a completely posed shot. Hee!
I’m going to be an i heart faces cheater and will show you the B&W version of this photo as well. Since I can’t win anyway, I guess it’s not that big of a deal. But make sure that you only have one photo in your post so that you’ll be qualified to win. :)
See you over at i heart faces!

P.S. Josh & Paige? I pinky-promise that I will have your photos finished for you soon. :)

Beautiful Angie! I think you should give us info on what texture/actions you used!!! hee hee!
This is so beautiful Angie! I saw it on my phone in tiny form and I just LOVED it! I couldn't wait to see it on the computer. SO pretty.
PS I can totally tell he is in your family! Your sons look like him a little : )
I can't decide whether I like the BW or the color one better!
Love the oil painted texture!
Amazing, Angie! That is a breathtaking picture. I can't decide if I'd pick the color or black n white...either way, those two are going to LOVE their pictures!
Such a great color, love this shot! And so cute that you have know him since he was a little boy, that makes it even more special!
Love it!
Beautiful shot! It looks like it is from a dream! The texture is perfect!
Totally looks like an oil painting, only better, very neat effect!
I'm going to have to have my wife teach me how to create the same amazing effect! The photo is spectacular!
Absolutely gorgeous! I wish we could all show the before pic just to see the differences!

Love the Fall colors and how you added texture to them! Great shot.
Oh dear!! That is just beautiful!
Stunning!! I love both versions but the b/w has me unable to look away!!

Beautiful, Angie! I love both too, don't know that I could choose either! The texture is gorgeous though, it really does add to the pics!
I think both are gorgeous, and although I'm normally a lover of black and white....the colors in the color version are breathtaking! Wonderful job!!
I really love the b/w one!
What a gorgeous pair they are! I bet there are quite a few gems from that series of pictures. The texture does a nice job of focusing attention on them and enhancing the background enough to be interesting but not obtrusive.
great picture
Lovely image and the texture is divine! Nice job!
The colors are beautiful!
The color version is magical! It looks like they are in a painting. Just beautiful.

What a tender moment. I love the color version as well. There's such a beautiful warm glow. Fantastic job!
Wow! I love it! The colored version looks like a painting. Beautiful!
Beautifully subtle...love it!!
Lovely edit. I like the color one, somehow it adds a bit of softness I like to the image whereas the b/w seems a bit stark. I like the warmth. :)
Nice. I actually like the black & white the best! :)
Awesome, I love them both.
They are perfect... I don't even know which one I like more.
