Trying to make wedding art with the 85LII

I have a bunch of photographs in this gallery from a wedding, mostly taken with the 85mm 1.2LII. I must say I absolutely love this lens and this gallery reminds me why I continue to put up with it's quirks. I'm still running around without a 70-200ii and I may never purchase it at this point.

It's hard to take a bad shot when you combine that lens with such a happy and beautiful bride!

I know there's a bit of green and purple tint here and there, I just threw up this small sample fairly quickly onto my new website - I need to quickly put up my other galleries. They'll be fixed soon

Full gallery is here, a couple of samples can be found below:

I absolutely love both of them! I also have the 85mm II 1.2 and it is my favorite lens next to the 70-200mm II 2.8.

Perhaps try to get the couple to place their hands on each other when they kiss, looks more genuine

Nice shots. The first photo's composition is a bit strange... with all of the dead space to the right of her... but it works. The 85 is a great lens... but the 70-200 has its place too. A 200mm shot at 2.8 has some unique properties a 85mm can't produce.

Thanks all

I'm tempted to get a 135L or 200L as my next lens to get that look. Not sure I want to tote around a big 70-200mm just yet.

Loveeee the first shot. Both are very good!!

Im debating the 85mm 1.8 now since the 1.2L is out of my budget. Keep up the good work

Nice images.
I will never understand grooms not shaving for their wedding day, ( you have no control over this and the pics are great!) I understand if that is their normal day to day look, but shave for that one special day.
getting off soap box, hope I don't fall
