Well... this was the 1st time that i got invited to a wedding. Never been to one before...
The bride and the groom are long time friends, and even more then that the groom if my photo-buddy, we usually go to event's together to snap some photos despite the fact that he uses a Nik.... machine.
We are amateur photographer's, just like many of the guest's that were at the wedding, so... there were lot's of people snapping photos.

Here are some of the photos that i took. Let me know what you think of them...

#1 - The bride (the "fat" guy in the back was the official photographer, also a friend). The sun was very strong at this time and i tried not to blow the white dress but it was hard to do that with out making the rest of the photo 2 dark.

#2 - The Groom. I think that i should have him on the left side of the photo... but i'm happy with the final result none the less...

#4 - One of my favorite, i had this one printed in 30.5 x 46 cm (that's 12 x 18 inches) to give to them when they return from the honeymoon.

Nice pictures but a little too much above the heads the eyes are mostly in the middle of the frame and not the top third, but a little crop will soon fix that.

The car shot is great

I agree with Wilky95, most of the shots have a face in the centre and a bunch of dead space above them. Learn and practice to lock focus and recompose...you will love the results. Other than that, well done.

7 photographers!! *runs and hides* thats 6 too many haha

fun shots but they all need a good cropping to make them better. i think the best is shot 3 or 6.
