Great Shots for your First Wedding! Not sure if your looking for C&C though :)

I don't recognize that temple. Is that the new temple in ID? It looks wet, was it raining? I love my 24-70 with the 5D2. Even with tall, big temples, I can still get everyone in and the spires. :) Nice job.

Zom, if you want cc, the best thing to do is leave the EXIF in tact or else give us the settings you used. That way we can see what you did. The first image is nice and too bad you did not have blue sky behind the couple. I can't tell if you used flash there, but a good reflector or some fill flash would have highlighted the couples face and that makes a good portrait even better.

The pictures are good, but I don't particularly dig the white sky, I would fill that light blue

Great composition, you could have used some technical help though :)

For both shots I would have used off camera flash and one stop lower. This would have given you a decent sky and only needed minor flash, which would not have made the image be over-flashed.

Good job thoughf or first wedding, my first event was horrible. If the client ever contacts me again I would do a job for free to make it up to them :D Altho hey I was starting, they knew, and I charged very little.

Good job, keep it up :) Composition is harder to learn than technical stuff by far.

Some fill would've helped but I like the white sky in #1. There is snow on the ground; a white hazy sky is appropriate.

The people appear rather small in the pictures which is something I don't often like for wedding pictures. I don't see how such a wide angle or being far from the wedding couple adds anything to photo #1. Is the ceiling of that walkway that important to include? Probably not. And it needed a bit of a fill flash because the couple is too dark.

What the bride and groom are doing in #1 would have looked much better with a 85mm lens instead of a 10 or 17mm lens as you probably used. Maybe you should read a book on portrait and wedding poses and compositions.

Nice images. I agree with the technical items so far, esp. the fill flash comment. I'd like to see some more, to see what other kinds of shots you got.
