This is exactly why editing matters

The following image is the original wedding photo.

A distracting object was touching the bride’s dress. It was real. It was there. It pulled attention away from the moment.

Here is the edited version.

The object is removed. The dress looks clean. The focus is back where it belongs, on the bride and the emotion of the day.

Editing is not about changing reality. Editing is about protecting the memory.

Weddings do not get a second chance. Moments happen once. Photos are what remain.

If a small distraction breaks the story, it is my responsibility to fix it with care and accuracy.

This is the difference between taking a picture and delivering a finished photograph. 

I enhanced this image by shifting the green tones of the leaves for an artistic purpose, guiding the eye toward the bride and the emotion of the moment.

This type of editing is valid in photography when it is used intentionally to support the story, not to change the truth of the scene.

Photography is not only about recording what was there, but about expressing how it felt.
