Exciting Wedding Announcement

I took some pictures of Brian and Andy for their wedding announcement a couple weeks ago. They didn't turn out too great, but then I remembered that I have photoshop. The first thing I realized was that Brian and Andy look exactly the same. The first rule of photography is don't ever take a picture of people who look alike, unless they are babies dressed as peas. To remedy this, I turned Brian's eyes an un-natural green color and gave his hair some highlights. I wanted them to look like the kind of highlights girls get when they do them on their own and have no idea what they are doing. It came out with the nice yellowish look I was shooting for. The only thing I changed on Andy was that I made her pants way more blue. Brian's too. I was so happy with my work that I threw my official business logo up in the top, complete with an outer glow. Some people might not like that in a wedding announcement, but then again, some other people might not like having their efforts go unnoticed. ME.
Still something was missing, so I placed a nice trout in the water.
They already ran off the ones they are using, but I bet they'll wish they waited after they see this baby. If anyone wants me to take some pictures of them, I'll do it. I'm trying to give back to the community.

Love it. The only thing I would change is maybe the logo should be a little bigger. I wonder if anyone would have noticed if you had actually switched thier faces? The trout is also a nice touch.
Thanks Nat. As soon as I take some of your kids, I'll make sure to make the logo at least twice as big. Also, I don't want you thinking their picture HAS to have a trout. I can throw in a salmon if you want.
Jim, you make me laugh. There really isn't much else to say. you're so stinking fun. Your efforts don't go unnoticed with me, my friend!
PS my word verification is "bully" i wonder what that means....
I really had almost given up. Day after day - checking to see if some off-chance you actually posted something. I decided to check one more time and to see a new post... My day had finally come. You really need to keep doing this. Think of it as a service. A kind gesture that won't go unnoticed.
It is funny that some people people simply can't come to the conclusion that they just have a nice camera and that is it. "stay at home mom (or some crappy dude)photography" need not accompany every picture that you take that looks half decent. If your real job description isn't photographer, you aren't one. You may squeeze off a good picture - hell, I know you know how to take great pictures, but even then - just because, doesn't mean.
