Nice shots but not pop ....i feel theyre like the usual hired photographer run of the mill shots.

That's ok....At least I wasn't "HIRED" Hahahahaha...... I was second set of lens off to teh side. So my positioning was limited. I agree that there is no "POP" as you call it after I seen the "Before & After" imaged edits by the members. Now I know how to use teh CS3 in layers, LIGHTS/DARKS as per EDIKS video tutorial etc.....

I can only hope to get better in time.

Thanks for the feedback.

Is it just me or does the white balance look off? alot of them look really blue. Try to adjust your white balance and that will help. Also make sure you never chop limbs. Thats my 2 cents hope it helps. keep workin on it, if you tweek just little things you wil be on the right track

I like both edits, but with edik's some areas are definitely over sharpened, such as skin.

About the Wacom, get one, you won't regret it, and you'll wonder how you ever managed without one. No matter what size or model it's better than a mouse!

You know what? I Just spent like, 6 hours editing over 800 photos taken at an Autocross because almost every image had an excessive amount of blues. I was adjusting in CS3 about -40 for each. What should my white balance be set at? I had it on AUTO for all the pics, but is there a set "outdoor" KELVIN I should be using? Hmmm. This is interesting since you noticed that, and my fingers are bleeding from all the adjustments.....

Thanks for noticing

Maybe I am inerpreting your text wrong but for some reason you sound like you are upset that I said that. I didnt mean anything personal, just trying to call it how I see it. I dont blow smoke up peoples behinds becasue I dont want people to do that to me, it doesnt help.
As for all the PP youve done, that is just a part of weddings, lots off PP can go into a wedding. In fact you could potentially spend more time doing that than actually shooting the wedding. Thats just life in the wedding business.
Also when you expose properly it will cit back on the PP. Just part of the learning process that everyone has to go through, I am still learning that. It takes time.
if you werent meaning that comment rudely than disregard this message, but if you did then I wont comment on your photos anymore because like I said I am not going to give critique to someone who doesnt want it.

No....You are fine....I was just responding to your comment that after reading what you wrote I had invested so much time adjusting the BLUES myself. So it was very coincidental. No harm...I didn't take it out of context. Thanks for at least clarifying when there was no need.
