Pretty nice Try dragging the shutter for dancing photos, or off camera flash. For #7 try and get the suit to stand out a bit more from the background. Some levels could be pushed up a little. Try #8 as a grainy B&W.

Sorry, its just to stop them printing the low res ones themselves. I've had problems with people doing that. I've implemented a feature that stops the people who arent IT literate downloading the photos from my site. But that doesnt stop anyone who knows what they're doing.

I definately second that. It's the first thing I noticed. I think it's very hard to focus on the photos when the "Proof" is very apparent and there. I wouldn't worry too much about people printing... Make your files low res (to the point where it will look like crap when printed). I think that it would be especially hard to get a decent print form web size.

Other than my critisism, I think the photos look very nice and I'm sure the couple will be happy

On #5. Great job capturing the moment. At first I really didnt' like that shot at all because I felt the focus was on the balloons and my eyes kept going there instead of to the couple. Now that I know the focus was SUPPOSED to be the balloons... I get it!
