The gallery won't open.

Nice shots... am I color blind?

The gallery took a while to open, but it opened.

Nice shots, did the clients request B&W? I hope one day to be able to do a lot of B&W for my weddings.

Nice shots... am I color blind?

If you are, then I am too.
I quickly gave them a glance over. There wasn't enough to spark my interest, the reason I say this is because they are all in the same tonal range, they're exposed great, but nothing that popped out. I think some color might have been a welcome change to the monotone monotony.

Didn't get to see the photos - way too slow to open

To lend a change to the seemingly negative tone of all the comments you've received, I was really impressed with these shots. Sure they're all monotone, but frankly I prefer monotone, and the drama it creates. I think the emotions and the joy that you were able to capture in these fleeting moments throughout the service and the reception will be a welcome memento of what, to the couple, is now probably just a blur. At least that's how I felt after mine! :) Wish I'd had a photographer as good as you at my wedding. We got stuck with the photographer's brother who usually only did posed studio work, no weddings. Not that it mattered, I guess, all the prints burned in a fire less than a year later anyway. BUT I digress, EXCELLENT work Felippe, I loved the gallery.

I just try to put the technical details (like color, popped tones) aside and I focus only at the emotions happening all the time during the whole wedding day... For sure the couple will prefer much more color than bw, but since it's only my personal portfolio, I gave myself the chance to be able to show the way I like to see a photography...

Svetlana> I made the gallery direct using the lightroom, and I'm still trying to figure out the best settings to export the gallery... I'm sorry but I know it has a long long loading time.

mellofellow> No! Thanks god you're not color blind... It's just the way I prefer to see a photography, although unfortunately clients don't think the same :(

viet> Yes... I too wonder the day I meet a client whose would buy a whole black and white album...

Aeth> Seeing only the technical aspects I do agree that all the photos in monotone do look boring... But have you tried to see beyond this single factor? I mean, there's so much going on through the whole day... Every kind of emotions... This is what I try to capture from the first single frame when I arrive to a wedding.

LesleyAnn> I know... I'm sorry... I'd really love if you could wait just a little more so I may have your comments :

rasmussen4> Glad we share the same view... I totally agree with you about the drama that a black and white picture is able to achieve. You trully can feel the emotion and the story behind each frame. Really thanks for your compliments, they do mean a lot!

shannyD> You typed the word that I like most when talking about wedding photography. Timeless. For me photography are made to register the present to anyone who may want to remind it in the future... Personally, I see a lot of great images with those stunning colors and contrasts, with oversaturated and popped tones... But at the same time I think to my self: Are these photographs timeless? Or they will be cheesy after 20 years? Trend is the worst word possible to relate to photography.

Negative tone? Wow. I sure loved the gallery. And I love your philosophy of photography and wedding photography. Keep it up! :)

[mellofelow]

Fellipe, those are great shot... really. My opinion is that God created human and few species on this planet with ability to see colors; it shouldn't be taken for granted.

[Eliza_Day]

apart from the colour issue, these really are fantastic images! Thanks for sharing!

[Ziffle]

Thanks for sharing ...
Interesting set. I like the B&W ....

question, was the interior visual interesting? Looked like there are some strong lines/corners and wood work....

[Lori Putman]

I got the "script running slowly" warning and it asking if I wanted to abort. Sorry, I would have loved to see the photos.

[tedBalog]

Love the conversions, they look stunning IMO.
