I think they are okay since you are still new.

First photo, I would of liked it more if the girls entire face was shown.
In the second and third photo, the girl is sligthly OOF.

i also think they are ok, they lack pop, and are just not that interesting. #1 could have used some fill flash also.

Any suggestions? Maybe a run through photoshop? Example?

just a bit of pop using curves, and maybe a little effect would be cool and add a bit of oomph.

i used some kubota actions for this edit: daily multi vitamin, hawaiian punch, and black borders. if you plan on doing serious wedding photography and don't have these actions, i personally think they are well worth the $99.

Well I went back to Photoshop and played with the curves. This is what I came up with. More pop? More life?

yes those have more pop, but now their skin tones looks funny. Processing is a crazy balance of effect vs original. Keep practicing. It's something that many (including me) have yet to master.

I think they are nice, just lack of PP.
The only thing that I don't like is the # 4, you cut out the girl's feet, but not the guy's.
Just something to consider.
