 Capturing a middle aged woman's honest expression as she tries on her old wedding gown. Natural sunlight coming through bedroom window onto model as she remembers her wedding day.

After snapping the picture, I cropped the picture, adjusted the contrast, and used the negative black space to fully capture the emotion on her face.

I think the lighting of this photo could be improved. The light is very hard, and causing some tough shadows and highlights to work with (for instance, the hair shadow in front of the eye).

So rough, so wrong, so... real. Points for something daring and different.

I like the negative space. Face looks familiar.

I think the lighting is harsh.. and part of the bangs is way covering parts of her eyes..
