Photographer's Comment

This couple picked the venue on the west end of Martha's Vineyard for its spectacular sunsets and planned to cut the cake right at sunset.,

  • A romantic picture. I love the light, the sun setting on right, warm glow adds to romanticism. The cake, bride and groom sort of lean towards same way, almost like as if one. I like the focus is on the cake, and bride and groom slightly out of focus works.
