all are excellent! very good job

I was all excited to come and drop the hammer but dude, these are really good.

The only tweaks I have and I struggle with these are:

#2 - Dress photo - Maybe move the point of focus a little more to the center of the dress or a little less bokeh. I find myself wanting to see more of the detail in the dress.

#2 - Collage photo - This one is good but doesnt fit with the other 3. The others are great because they are simple, this one has a little too much going on compared to the others.

#5 - Just a tad more fill light

Other than that, I am not a tilted horizon guy but that is just a personal taste, you rocked out on the set. Well done fellow!!

Agreed. I've got other dress shots but this one fit in the collage the best. Should have probably stopped down a little bit more.

**Changed the photo to a different one. Refresh browser to see the change.

Are you talking about the overhead table shot? Now that I look at it again, I see what you mean. Or perhaps you are talking about the collage as a whole being too busy?

Yup. I upped the brightness a little bit. Refresh the browser to see the change!

I dig the collage in #2 as a whole, the bottom right pic with collage of photos of the couple, doesnt flow with the rest. The others are very simple and elegant, the couples collage one doesnt fit with the rest.

I like the new dress photo a lot better!

#5 The new edit is exactly what I was thinking would look good!

Ah, OK. I see now about #2. I see what you mean now. Let me try to cook something up with that then.

Yeah, I agree. #5 looks much better. Thanks for the suggestion. I also brightened up #7 while I was at it.

OK, I changed that one photo to a simpler one.

I brightened up #8 too.

if i had to nitpick, id say on the closeup bride shot, id fix that white spot above her right eye ( i work at lab and edit pictures all night long)...

Fixed the white spot above the right eye! Refresh your browser to see the changes.

Lovin #5, definitely captured a raw moment.

not a big fan of #7, the brides hands seems a tad awkward

All and all, lovely set, love the pp.

On #7, if you look closely, the bride is actually grabbing onto the groom's jacket. That's why it looks that way.

I love the lighting, Nick. What did you use?

Fabulous work!

#3: Just a 580EXII bounced off the ceiling.
#7: 580EXII direct at the couple for some fill.
#8: 580EXII bounced off the ceiling. There was also enough window light for ambient lighting.

The rest were available light.
