Last weekend I had the pleasure of meeting with Lauren and Ray again to take photograph their engagement. I've just got to say...what a FUN couple!

C/C appreciated!

Your shooting style reminds me of Edpingol (?) on Fred. Beautiful colors, great angles & I love your B&W conversion.

I like your style.. It's fun and relaxed. The sun is a bit harsh in some of them, but overall it actually works with the photos.

Nice series. The only one I don't like is the first. While I like the emphasis on the ring, the shallow DOF doesn't really work for me since the couple is still clearly discernable. Furthermore, with such a big smile, the loss of focus seems to conflict with the image. I think if the DOF was even shallower, to prevent the viewer from trying to focus on a blurry image, I would like it better (but not sure). ...
But the others are very nice. I especially like the last image where she is gazing into his eyes.

Vignetting in the corners, but in general I like them! Colorful and good saturation.

Nice set, number three is outstanding, such a nice tight crop, and it really stands out from the rest of the set because it's quite different.
