Embedded your pics for you to help you get some more responses.

Decent job for your first time out. All the photos of the ceremony are too far away for my tastes. one or two would be fine, but I would like to see tighter shots of the bride and groom to properly show the emotion of the moment. The color in the last one is nice, but also a bit far away for my tastes. Get right in there and get some close ups next time!

I concur with Theo. I'm sure you may have some tighter shots, just all these wides don't give the best sampling of work. Otherwise pretty good, nice colors on the last one!

Good effort for your first! For #6, the outdoor scene, it is over exposed as the details in her white wedding dress are all lost.

I almost get the impression that you weren't allowed on the main floor during the ceremony which almost adds up to being a second shooter. But then I read that you attended the wedding which leads me to believe that you weren't the hired photographer. Just a friend shooting from behind the scenes. This makes it harder to get the nice close up shots you'd like to get. You don't want to get in the way of the guy who's getting paid to do this.

I agree that #6 is overexposed as well as #3 but not quite as badly overexposed as #6.

I do like the vantage point in #1 & #2. Great angle.

nice catch of the groom wiping his eyes! love it.

Picture 4 does it for me, like that shot..nice creativity
