Cinematic vs Natural which do you prefer

I took this photo of a bride and I was curious I processed it two ways and was curious what people felt was a more pleasing process a cinematic processing or a more natural color processing. Loved to hear your thoughts.

It's very subjective but I personally prefer warmer tones like in the second one. The color in the second photo seems to give off a calmer/happier feel.

I agree the second one feels calmer/more relaxed, but to me she kind of blends into the background. In the first one she pops a bit more, so I think I'm leaning towards that as being the stronger image.

I think I prefer the first one. The second image is just too beige for me. I think the bride gets lost a bit in the second image.

Something little is really bugging me about these images . . . could you maybe clean up the dirty, exposed, sole of the shoe? My eye keeps going to it. The photographs are really gorgeous and well done, and what I'm seeing is a dirty shoe.

I agree. First one.

First one looks better to me. I'm not a fan of overprocessed color grading as this tend to reflect lower end Hollywood and Film students. Higher end tend to be more subtle, if I recall correctly.

Looking at both.. I'd split the difference.. treat her in the colors on the second.. but the background should get the colors in the first photo... Win/Win then I think.

First one for me too.

First.

Personally I prefer the more natural processing. I would like the first one better if it were toned down a bit, more subtle.

As a side note: if you are going to deliver this to the couple, I guess it'll have to depend on your overall aesthetics. I don't think people like surprises.

For once, I can't really decide between either. They're both very good and both could stand to have a little of the other in it. Good problem to have!

I think it depends on the type of bride. You spend the day with her what was she like?

I couldn't even tell which is which: both images look too doctored to me, neither looks natural.

I prefer in this case the cinematic one. The natural is very good also.

The red tint in the second one is bothersome. I dont know that I would call it natural.
