My favourites are 3, 4 and 8. thank you tlc wrote in post #12643146 are you using direct flash? 2,3, and 5 appear to have shadows. have you tried bouncing? No direct flash here, most of those that you pointed out were bounced of ceiling if i remember correctly. I did use the omni bounce plastic thing which throws a bit of direct light (maybe I should've pointed the head more up on those) . #3 is all natural light from the near window. 5D MkII | 35L | 50 1.4 | 85 1.8 | 2x 580ex II |

When in the dressing room, I ALWAYS give my bride a prep talk, telling her that to get the best photos, I might need to direct her towards the light while she's getting ready. So when they get to the buttoning up of the dress, I ask her to have her back to the the window so that I can get that light, and not have to use the flash. Don't hesitate to direct them a little. 3. ditch the faded vignette...it dates your photo. Otherwise, this is a beautiful shot! 6. beautiful bridal portrait! great light 7 has a bit of a green cast to it. I'd pull those greens back and balance it out with a little magenta in PS 8 is beautiful, as well, but could use a little fill on their faces. This can totally be done in PS. Thanks for your input. I should say that this is my second wedding and I was never so nervous before the shoot. This wedding was going in a very fast pace and we were running late. I didn't had much time to think since the clock was my enemy here. In that time frame I tried my best to shoot as much as I could and I think I did well. Came up with lots of shots and great shots. I just picked out quickly a batch to post here. I will take your advise and apply it in my next shoot. 5D MkII | 35L | 50 1.4 | 85 1.8 | 2x 580ex II |

It's such a nice picture, I don't think it needs anything gimmicky to make it better. Some Canon cameras. Some Canon and Sigma glass. Speedlites, and a few other goodies.

Textures are all the rage right now I've found that a lot of times what a photographer likes isn't always what the client likes 2nd this... very true, sometimes we are very critical of things clients find charming and want in their photos even though they technically are dated or no no's in composition, etc. Canon 5d MKII, 40d gripped - Canon 70-200mm 2.8 L IS, 50mm ,85mm, Sigma 2.8, Tamron 17-35 2.8, etc..
