I like the photos a lot! looks like they are having a blast! one thing though - your processing is all over the place - green hues in a few, then magenta hues, doesn't flow. But again, they may look way better when seen as a whole set as opposed to a few images posted on a forum.

Thanks for that, they specifically asked for lots of variety in the editing and so we tried to do that while still trying to maintain a theme through the style of shooting. Also we edited them in groups so there are a more poses on the doc edited the same, the getting ready photos look similar etc.

Number 2 was severely underexposed first shot after changing to a new location and so this was just how we recovered the image.

I like the lighting and the feel on these better than the other set. Some of the crops seem a bit wide and I'm not sure about the tilt with a dip, but really like the other shots.

Luke, you know I like your stuff, and you do a good job at giving that "style" to the images that I am not too fond of, but subtle enough where I think it really fits what you are going with. Its a style difference, and there is nothing wrong with that. Here are my thoughts.

1. A bit greenish - you know this but I will point it out in each image, just cause its different. I like the framing, but would probably bring the darks up a tad to get some deeper blacks in his suit.

2. I like this one, except its a bit magenta.

3. The crooked horizon with the dip throws me for a loop. Im not digging the tilt on this one.

4. Cute, a bit green.

5. Magenta. I think I would crop this tighter, and maybe horizontal. Where she is kissing him is adorable, her legs wrapped around him isnt attractive I dont think.

6. Great expression, but cropped too high. It looks like she is naked.

7. I like this. The next pose I think I would have done is have her bring her chin to her shoulder and look down and away from the light.

8. I think this is a good shot for web, but shot a bit wider and more horizontal would be even better for an album.

Again, my opinions, and I know you are going to be able to take them as so. Good set of images.

It's a nice set. Bryan made some great points. I am not a fan of the processing. It is all over the board.

Wasn't our best wedding and we knew that, we had some good things come from it but not our best work. Thanks for the help though everyone!
