Default My 10/7 Wedding

Finally starting to catch up! This wedding was at a really cool "50's modern style" catholic church with really interesting skylights in the foyer (see pic #6). And I made sure the bride was smiling for the headshot!

Nice stuff Jamie! The last image...frame it and hang it! Your first image, the bathroom shot, I am uncertain about and makes me question some of my own shots! I don't know if it's the color or the toilet. On the other hand, it does portray the real day. Good work!

I'm sorry to say that nothing grabs me, Jamie. The portrait is good but the shadow from the hair spoils it a little for me, such a minor thing. I like the group around the car, but for some reason it still doesn't grab me. The phrase "get closer" has jumped into my mind unbidden.

Thanks Scott!

Funny Tim, been hearing "get closer" a lot lately. Maybe I should take it to heart...

#6 is quite good, but would be better if it were cropped half way down. (Keep the bottom half!!)
#7, something draws me to this one, maybe be better in B&W?
#8 Really nice - crop it square and frame it!

I have to agree with Tim here ... those arent grabbing me like your images usually do and the shadow on her face in the portrait was my first thought too. It would be a wonderful portrait otherwise!
I like the last to best out of the ones you showed!

LOL! Not everyone has to smile to look good - - but at least this bride looks happy. I have to disagree with the others. I love shot #8 and #5 is yet another very cool "guys" shot. I really like the angle of the "make-up" shot in #2. I love your "eye", style and ability to create mood with your images.
