Rainy day, tried to do it with strobes but it looked 10 times better with the natural light allowing me to stay wide open to get that creamy “Bokeh“.

Bokeh (from the Japanese boke ボケ, “blur”) is a photographic term referring to the appearance of out-of-focus areas in an image produced by a camera lens.[1] Different lens bokeh produces different aesthetic qualities in out-of-focus backgrounds, which are often used to reduce distractions and emphasize the primary subject.
