    Outdoor Family Portraits | Backlighting Photography

    © 2015 Wazari Wazir | My Family Having Fun at The Park To some photographers, backlighting is their worst nightmare, depending on situation of course, but for me I love backlighting because they are natural and I want to photograph it naturally, just the way it is.
