From a recent wedding I shot

[MichaelE]

I am a very junior shooter for this style so C&C are most welcome! These are from a wedding I shot last Sept. I really loved the location we picked for the formals (Temple Ambler Arboretum, PA).

Nice shots. What did you do to the last one, I like the effect.

They're good... the first two look a little yellow though... ;)

Thanks for the comments folks!

@rodddy -> It's a soft focus action called Matt's soft focus on Lightroom. Very similar to the Skin effect but with more of a blur. Then some sharpening on the subjects to highlight.

Very nice set, well done.

I am really picky about skin tones. I shoot weddings, too. The tan lines on her upper body was distracting to me. This happens a lot when brides insist on sleeveless and strapless gowns. I'd definitely PP that to smooth it out. Also, when you do depth shots with the tree trunks, do some with a larger aperture to give it more depth. That also allows for a more artistic feel. I liked the lighting, yes a little yellow, but good images.
