This picture was photographed by Red Fly Studio and the location is 15 miles south of Valdosta, Georgia. The most striking thing I found in this image was the contrast in styling. The brides dress and beautiful shoes contrasting with the mans trainers and Pringle socks on show. There is also an informal and fun feel to the photograph as the bride hitches her dress up to show off her shoes and legs and the man next to her does the same. 

This picture has been framed with the two peoples feet in the center of the image and the brides dress spreading out of the frame to the right hand side of the photograph. Both people are facing towards the camera but each of their inside feet pointing towards each other indicating a closeness and a liking to each other. 

The feet are in the mid-ground of the photograph therefore making them the focal point of the image, at the very front of the picture, in the foreground, is the wooden floorboards that lead to the feet and draw your eye to them as they vertically meet the feet. In the background and to the left of the picture the focus  blurs as the floor boards get further into the distance. There is a broad depth of field in this photograph as  most of the image is in focus, it is only a small proportion, the back left, of the photo that is not in focus. There is a lot of light in the image, this helps make the depth of field broader and makes the photograph look happy and light hearted. The high levels of light create this crisp and sharp image with clear lines and outlines. 

The photograph has been taken at a low angle, level with the floor. This shows only the feet leaving the viewer to think about the photograph and make up their own scenario.
