These are just a few snaps from a wedding I did myself this past weekend. It was my first wedding & I had a good amount of time to prepare myself. I would love C&C so please don't hesitate!

I can't get over the first one. So washed out, colors way off, cool, and OOF or compression but considering the others I'd say OOF.

#2 is flat and dark.

#3 I like...could read the lettering a bit better so tone it down a bit.

#4 Gorgeous capture! Looks like something a jeweler ad.

2, 3, and 4 are awesome! I like the blown highlights in #3. The bride's dress is a stunner!!

#1 is OOF and very distractingly so.

The best of these is #4. I think #2 could be a decent shot if lightened up or something, it's just too dark.

I have to say that the overall shots are good as far as composition, but the processing is killing them. I would reccomend not going too crazy on the processing until you feel comfortable with just improving a photo straight out of the camera... Go back and just do some standard adjustment to exposure, white balance and contrast and then repost them so we can get a good idea.
