Here's one from after the big show. I wish I'd asked him to put his hand on her hip.

I think you did a great job, number five is my favorite, love the colors in the background. Wish four was a bit more in focus around her chin and eyes.

Thank you. #4 is nice and sharp until I resize and post here. I can't really figure out why it affects that one so much and not the others. Pretty low-res uploads I guess.

Nice set. Very nice. I wish she was holding the bouquet upright in the fourth shot though. Looks like she ate 'em. First one should be at a slightly higher angle too, in my opinion. Lighting & processing is very nice.

These are great!! I really like number one! I'm not a pro but I know what I like, and I think the vignette works perfectly.
Got anymore?

I like them a lot! The use of ambient light in the pictures in the first post is perfect. :)

HA!! You're right it does...that cracks me up. She wanted her bouquet in the photo, but it had wilted quite a bit, so I had her flip it over. Thought it might work.

Thanks for the comments all. I DO have a few more, but just thumbs as I am at work.

Looks like you have some nice shots, but I will say, I agree about the softness. Here's what I do (and recommend) run a USM on the photo after resizing it, it'll bring out the crispness.

My settings are: 150%, 0.3, 0.. But I'd play around until you find what is right for you.

Thx. Easy enough. I don't spend much time with my POTN resizes, but that might be an easy fix.

First off...Love the Tommy Boy avatar!!

I think these are all lovely...I really never comment on sharpness unless it pops right out
at you...resize can soften any picture no matter how sharp.

I love the look of these. great composition and great color!!

Thanks for the comments. It's always strange to me how some shots seem more affected than others by resizing. Even when I KNOW they're just as sharp when viewing actual size. I never resize anything except to post here, so maybe I just don't do it right.
