OK so I have been reading all of your posts for months now but have not felt comfortable posting more then once or twice. I took these two at a recent wedding and am wondering if you all think they work.

I really like the first one, the second I'm not so fond of, it seems a little to blown out.

yes the first one is great...what did you do in terms of PP for these? well done!

Thanks alot. I also like the first one much better. The second one I did mostly because I had the first and felt I needed to keep it balanced for the bride. The younger flower girl was darling but not totally in to being in the wedding. It was hard to get pictures where she was not eating little crackers. I did get this one of her and the bride and I did some pp to down play the cracker container she was holding.

can I ask how you did the PP on these? I really like the effect on the first and last pics.

I used a ps action called midnight sepia-then tweeked the results a little. I also enhanced her eye color so that in the final image the color was a true representation of her eye color.

I love them, highlights and all

First is lovely, but using a standard or long lens unstead of a wide lens would improve it. 2nd is interesting, exposure's way off, but nice anyway. 3rd is quite cool. Interesting PP.

Tim thanks for your comments. The second photo was totally blown out so I tried to push it a little further and go (stretch) for an artistic interpretation. Is the 3rd one "quite cool" as in cold or as in hip? I would not want it to feel too dark (as in moody).
