I used chanel mixer to desaturate, then grayscale, duotone. go back to RGB then aplied a level layer in overlay mode in order to get contrast.
Let me know how it looks for a full page Album (10x15). What would you do to improved it.

Thanks,

LuisE

I like the tone, but the image feels too tight, and it's a bit tilted. She looks a little uncomfortable, her neck is tight. Also, maybe tone done the shiny-ness in her left cheek. Are those petals behind her? They're a bit distracting, but easy to clone out. Hope that helps! :)

I agree, a bit tight. I'd tame a few highlights and remove the leaves.

her dress is so beautiful. do you have another image with the full dress where the background isnt so busy and distracting. i would choose that over this. also if it were going in my book i would fix the shine on her face.

i wish my brides had dresses like that. show it off
