Hi there,
Here are some photos that I did a couple of days ago for a lovel couple. Would love some CC on what you all think. Thanks in advance.

1) Nice emotion and composition in this image just watch the jaw line on the lady.
2)The couple is too far to the right of the image for my taste. I think that because of the large tree on the left and the couple on the right the negative space isn't working to well. I might have tried putting the couple near to the large tree instead.
3) The expression on the guys face is a little strange and the background is a bit distracting.
4) Nice ring shot, I just wish you hand shown both hands holding each other in this image.
That's my take.

I don't have the professional capacity to "critique" per se.....but I do think the couple look very happy and relaxed in the shots, and I'd like to bet they are more than pleased with your shots, so well done!

That's my take.

To expand on number one as far as the jawline is concerned: Just watch how she places her chin. Have her push her forehead towards the camera to cut the jawline up and get rid of any "double chin".

Also just watch expressions. Otherwise, it's a good set.

This is some proper critque - ing!

My only 2c worth is, lacking a bit of contrast in all... Apart from that, nice job.

everyone has their own opinion, mine would be just to cool it with the vignetting in post.

also, you may want to host on flickr and then link, you may get better quality pictures.
