Default Selective Color

I had the good fortune to be the photographer of choice for a young senior. I must have delivered, they asked me to do a family set. Here are two from the session. They are both posted processed using selective color. The mom was happy so I know I did alright.

W. Family Portraits

We found this sleigh in Old Town square, no snow or horse, but it came in handy just the same.

Happy Thanksgiving to all my fellow Americans and have a great week to all!

I always like the selective color where people are in color instead of objects, so I like the second one best.

I don't disagree, I was aiming towards a Christmas shot. They have the full color version too.
