 I'm not sure how this will do, but it was just one of those golden moments when the flower girl (the bride's daughter) had just had enough and decided to play around a bit...
Technical details:
desaturated everything except purple to highlight the little girl's antics. Adjust levels, cropped, export for email. Would have liked to burn and dodge a bit, but kept it clean for basic.

I love the innocence of the child that you so greatly captured... just a bit concerned on the "basic editing rules" - please let me know how you did this within the rules!!

LOL!

There's some funky bright pink on the groom's head and in the flowers on my monitor. I hope it's not on everyone's.

Hahaha. I can relate to that. The last wedding I went to I took more photos of the flowergirl and pageboy and their antics than I did on the couple.
