I had the opportunity to shot a beatiful wedding. The bride was so worry about her photographer capturing her beatiful dark blue eyes.
I woul appreciatte some CC regarding to this photo. I did some curves but I think was too much, so Let me know what do you think.

love the picture! you did a great job with the eyes. i would have seen what it would have looked like if she took a step forward to get the busyness of that room on the right out of there

beautifully captured feeling in the shot; you know how to communicate with your subject

two things bothering me:
-The wrinkles around her mouth exaggerated with sharpening
-The restless background that you could have darkened or blurred in PS or "bokeh'd" while shooting at full aperture (depending on your lens)

I appreciate your habit of NOT over-photoshopping your images

Absolutely fabulous shot LuisE. For me, the main spoiler is the blown areas on the flowers. Thanks for posting, Tony

Sounds like the groom is in for problems, but you did your job nicely.

Beautiful composition. Great focus and great edits of the eyes. Beautiful pose and model. Great expression. The most important variables to a bridal shot are immaculate. You did good.

As for me, I think the image is too soft and will probably not produce a really sharp printout.
