Wedding: C. & M.

Here are some results of my last wedding from saturday.

#1

So boring?!

#1 and #4 look over exposed, the white is distracting. My Favorites are #2 and 3 except he looks kind of Miserable in #3.

I dont do weddings so I may be off base so take my CC with a grain of salt. If the customer is happy that is all that really matters. Art is subjective.

I think they're a beautiful set. However the sunlight on their faces in #1 and #4 distracts me. I understand its tough not to have sunny faces during outside weddings though, and I don't think its a make or break aspect of each photo. I agree with "electricme" about #3; do you have any other shots where the groom is smiling? I think its a bit blown out too, especially on the bride, because you can't really see the flower detail on her dress that you can on the other images. Maybe tone it down a few stops and use fill light in PP to highlight the parts you think it needs extra light. (Thats what I do anyways, I'm not saying its the correct way to do things.. haha.)

Overall, I think they're great images. I LOVE image #3 on your website with the plants in front of them and the Groom is genuinely happy. That one is definitely my favorite out of your whole set.

Looks like you were fighting pretty harsh sun without flash or reflectors, so they are going to be a bit overexposed. I don't mind it too much to be honest. Could probably pull the exposure down a stop in the outside color shots, but it does go with the overall tone of your shots pretty well as is.
#3 is outstanding! Would be great to see a few more from that area of the shoot.

The blown out stripe in the first shot is really distracting (which is too bad it's a cute shot). For the next time I don't know if it would have worked to move around the bar so that the sun wasn't coming from the side. Harsh direct sun can be difficult

Thank you all for your feedback!
"would have worked to move around the bar": believe me....I tried...but this was the best position and in all others we had a lot of disturbing things in the background....so I decided this position though the light was here to hard and not gainful.
The time was between 11 und 13 o'clock....not the best time for shooting but we had no choice
