Orig looks kinda cool. Not a fan of the second one.

I like the second but the shadow under her eye kinda makes it look like she has a shiner, if you could lighten that some it would be a neat shot!

Sexy bride but I'd delete it.

I'd be looking at keeping colour with the bouquet- but sepia toning the rest. No image editing though. Has potential definitely.

Cheers

Too much gray for not being a B&W photo on the second although it could work.

I agree. In #2, I would just turn her b&w and leave the flowers the way they are.

Would you be willing to let us play around with the original RAW file?

Did she buy it? The retouch has a mid-90s fashion "heroin chic" look imho. Not what I'd typically think of for a bridal shot, but different strokes...

Did you shoot in RAW or in jpg?

Next time I would shoot a properly metered image, and then overexpose it. .02

A different image! I'd keep it and work with it. I like overexposed shots sometimes. This one will work. But, fix under her eyes.

the original is in raw. it was a total accident from going inside to outside where the sun was blaring down.

Not a huge fan of the second one, but the first one has a cool, otherwordly type of feel. Not to sound morbid, but it is kind of like what you would see in a movie when a guy is dreaming of his bride and how beautiful she was right before she was killed or something like that. Like she is fading away.
