If you’ve been in the photography field for any amount of time, you’ve probably heard it. It’s not the gear, it’s the brains. And good photographers can see potential where others see dullness.

Take this Save The Date shoot from Tom Saimon (previously). No clouds, boring skies. Now, many photographers would have just used that scenery to create a nice set of sunset photos.

Tom, however, looks for the right place -a puddle, and the right angle – super low. Combining the two made for a slightly different shot that the usual sunset-in-the-background image.

This is what the location looks like:

The next photos is the result:

and the last one is a suggestion on a creative edit from a different couple. The photos were taken with a Canon 5Dmk4 and a 16-35 2.8L glass from a low angle at 16mm and 2.8.

much better from a low angle, right?
