Good posing but both images look a little blown out. There isn't much color difference in the flowers and some of the lace work in the dress is getting lost, which is a crucial part of bridal portraits. Good job!

It looks like you had a flash in an umbrella or some sort, correct? I agree that it looks a bit burnt but nothing crazy, are you able to bring highlights down in post? Otherwise I can't say anything bad about the photos, they look great!

I like to shoot things...sometimes with a camera!

I liked the first versions best. I tend to process the way you did - the dress looks white before you dropped the highlights, which to me is more important. I'd bet that you have all of the info in the file and did not loose any data, so in that case, what I do is create a high pass layer and brush it onto the dress to bring out the lace texture even in the bright white areas.

I like the edits much better. They're all good, but I (and I'm sure the bride will) appreciate being able to see the details in the dress and the colors in the flowers. Spend that much on a dress and not be able to see why is a little disconcerting.

I like them with the highlights brought down too, although I wouldn't have been upset with the first ones either.

Nice job!

I can't help it but it looks like a piece of hair growing out from her armpit? or is it a piece of thread from the dress?
