I love the colors, great set and an awesome style to them. I don't, however, like the softness in them. They all seem very soft to me :/. I enjoy images of high contrast and crisp edges, but these seem almost overly soft but that might be my monitor. Also, we don't see the grooms face really...maybe a bit in the last one, butnot much in the rest. Don't get me wrong, AMAZING set, I'm just nit picking ;)

I get the sharpening thing a lot from the forum crowd. I don't sharpen for web usage... And the image reduction method used on my blog probably isn't the best for adding that extra edge... I like my photos a bit softer than most do though too.

I like the ring shot but would have liked to see the full reflection.

The dress gets overwhelmed by the back lighting in the dress shot.

I like the first couple shot. Good angle.

I'd like to have the second couple shot with them more to the right of the frame to convey movement - him moving into her.

The head on the shoulders shot is great. More emotion from her would have been nice.

The sky in the house shot distracts me too much (any distraction is too much, really) from the subject.

Last shot is interesting. Was this a reflection?

Hey if it's your style, then I'll leave it be :). I like the images otherwise but still wish I had seen the guys face at least one :P I honestly couldn't tell you how the guy looks because there are no front on shots of him :P. I like the set though other than that

The framing in 3 and especially 6 (counting by individual shots from left to right) seem lazily done to me, mainly because of where the bottom crop cuts off.

I like the window reflection shot (they're inside and backlit I presume) the most because the depth of field tells more than just the 'color story' about the environment. Yes, I find the quest for razor thin dof, particularly when more than one subject is in the photo and the environment is gorgeous, to be counterproductive a lot of the time.

Context: These look good and they'll inevitably be thrilled by them.

I was a bit worried about that. Fortunately no one was around to tell us to leave. It helped being that it was somewhat of the off-season.
