#5 and the right image of #6 are my favs

-selective color is cheesy if you do it for you, if the client request it then its perfect

#2 is too dark

Great set of images...thanks for sharing

great shots! #3(although numbered 2) the selective color looks a little weird the way you did it... they just look like they are dead... I would say if you just did the flowers it would be more noticeably a b&w rather than a dead looking picture... but I really like them :)

i find the high contrast on #1, 2 and 5 to be a bit much, and #3 needs more contrast. I also wonder why you left the background in color? It would probabaly be more dynamic if ONLY the flowers were in color. Besides those points, its a nice set.

3,4,5,6, Are very nicely done. I like the point of view and camera angle of image 1 as well. Keep up the awesome work. I am sure they loved them all.

I like the shots and the layout. I'm not a huge fan of the processing on the one where the guys are sitting on the bench. And don't worry about selective color being 'cheesy'... sometimes it's okay to simply have fun with an image.

these are great, i agree about the selective saturation being kinda odd, but the composition of all of these, as well as the creativity, is outstanding! i can tell you'll make a wonderful wedding album out of these :)

The shot of the groomsmen is great except for the selective coloring in my opinion. As was mentioned earlier, if it was a client request then it's perfect! :) But I find the selective color distracts from the overall quality of the image. My eyes to straight to those flowers, bouncing from one to the other without taking in the image as a whole.

I really like your pictures. The only thing that I would have done different is in #2... I would have put the little kid thats on the end in the middle. It's a great idea, but when I first looked at it.. I didn't notice him. Maybe putting him in the middle might have also given a different feel for the picture. Also, most likely since he is so young compared to the other groomsmen, there is a story behing him being there. If he was in the middle, it would accent the reason he is there...
maybe I'm wrong. It's just my 0.02
all in all Great pics though!!!

i like these, love what u did to number 4 with the stairs - the selective colour one isnt looking right tho cos you left all the yellow in the grass and backgound. to do it properly you have to greyscale all that out, otherwise it makes the colourless groomsmen look like they all died standing there
