Exclamation Asian Wedding

Enclosed some photos of a recent wedding I. Looking for some feedback. THis is a tiny selection of the day, but the colours were the main thing that made it special to photograph

A game that is played post wedding where the bride and groom must find a ring in the bowl. Everyone found it hysterical. Certainly a change from dashing white Sergeant!!!

Hi
Love the first 2,
Number 2 is actually my favourite, looks like a stolen moment if you know what I mean.
Not sure about number 4 with the cropping
I quite like the B&W version of the last one, she has very striking eyes maybe a bit too much shadow under her chin?

HTH - just my two pence worth, but really beautiful pictures and love the vibrant colours!

Beautiful, the #4 looks a little pixilated, I'm sure it's just the posting though. I might try to soften her face in the last one a tad, as a bride I wouldn't like it if my pores showed so much in the photo. BRILLIANT colors, they look incredible.

Asian weddings are usually vibrant with colours, yellow red and orange being the most popular. I like 1 & 2 most of all, with the portraits done well, especially of the bride.

However i think rather than b/w i'd opt for a sepia tone. I've seen it done on my brothers wedding album and the photog at the time did a very good job to give it a timeless feel to it.

Yes. I just shot the wedding of my niece, but missed the red gown at the end because we were in a hurry. At a Chinese banquet, the bride usually changes 3 times, she must put on every piece of gold jewelry the family owns (usually borrowed just for this day). Always the bride wears heavy make up. Very colorful.

Your photos are very sweet and the portraits are beautiful. Thanks for posting.
