INTRODUCTION:
A couple weekends back I was invited by Donna and Lenny to head up to Montreal to shoot one of their engagement sessions. It was a real treat for me as it was my first time there and I had a great time with them, plus I got to spend the weekend as a tourist with my girlfriend and some of our close friends. Some highlights of the trip were the smoked meat and Montreal bagels! Yum!

TECHNIQUE:
I haven’t posted anything in the “Technique” section for a long time but I wanted to let you up-and-coming photographers know that along with lighting and posing, seeing lines and symmetry in the backgrounds is very important as well. A good photographer can use the background elements in good composition to focus the viewers attention on their model. Check out how I used the trees, and lines created from the buildings to do that in this set.
