I was drawn to share again

I havent shared here for awhile, but second shot yesterday and I was in charge of the guys getting ready (thus, all of the photos of the guys).

Id love some C&C.

Well done. I agree that suit is tough on the eyes.

I know. I thought the suits looked awesome, but I knew it was going to freak out in the photos.

what lens are u shooting with 35 f1.4?

Most of this wedding was with the 70-200 and the 24-70.

Those stripes must've been pretty fierce! #3 looks terrible. Did you try softening/blurring the suits in an attempt dull the zebra look? There's also a pretty noticeable reflection in the groom's sunglasses in #3.

The lady in #4 kind of ruins the shot, but I guess it would've been inappropriate to move into the isle while the bride and groom were exiting.

Other than that, I think you did a great job, as usual.

Ugh, that suit! I bet it seemed like a good idea when they picked them out, too!

I love them all except the first one. It just kind of looks like the guys all have to pee. But, yeah, love the rest!!

Great stuff. obviously the stripes are very distracting on the groom though.

On #3 is that an umbrella reflected in his glasses, or how was that shot lit?

Thanks 4 sharing

everything is nice except for the suits the guys r wearing....
i bet u when the couple was looking at the pics, the bride probly told the groom "u shouldn't have worn that kind of suit, now the pictures r ruined"... then they're going to have their 1st argument as a married couple.... thats how it is anyway....

I would clone out the stripes *LOL*
Nice series but not a fan of the pose in #1 or the splotchy lighting.

Great shots.

Best regards/Daniel

Thanks for all the comments guys. As far as the suits, I obviously had no control over that. although I thought they looked cool, I knew it was going to be bad for photos, but its not like they can get new suits.

As the pose in number 1, peacefire makes a good point. I like doing this pose, but it kinda does look like they have to go to the bathroom. About the splotchy light, I agree with you. I don't like splotchy light, but I didn't know how long I would have with the guys, so I set up the strobe outside of the grooms house and was prepared to shoot only one shot. It turned out we had a lot more time, thus the reason we took more photos.

As far as lighting, 1 was lit with a bare strobe, and 4 was an umbrella on my einstein. The rest are natural except the last, which was lit by the Quantum flash shot direct.

Take a look at THIS video to see whether the (photoshop) technique will help you remove some of the moire.
