Hot Day, Beautiful Bride, and a Sweet Harley

MattDJ · 26th of June 2008 (Thu)

I recently shot this wedding near Richmond VA and let me tell you...it was HOT! I'm talking, lose 5 pounds just by walking outside hot. And the ceremony and reception were both outdoors so needless to say, I was drenched!

Here are a few images from that awesome day. There are tons more on my blog and even more still in the slide show. Hope you enjoy it!

Similiar to Tobiah-

1.) the blown out details I think impact what is a nice shot.
2.) i like
3.) i would've preferred a tigher crop on the hands... i
4.) really cool composition, just not thrilled with the PP... still very cool

Awesome. Thanks for the comments all!!

Yep. One could be spectacular. Burn the dress and driver down, back off a bit on the vignetting, or make it a smoother transition - currently it seems to be poorly executed, although I realize you were going for a look. It doesn't quite work, IMO.

The rest are really nice images, but I love the possibilities of the first one. Last shot is great! Could you redo #1 and post it back here? I'd love to see it!
