From a recent wedding shoot... (comments requested)

Rudi,

Now you already know this is a keeper, especially for the happy couple. I gave it the blink test and my eye kept going to the hands, so that's great. Very nice composition.

One thought: the foremost part of the bouquet is a bit busy and seems to compete for attention. Perhaps a simpler bouquet?

Congrats on a super shot,

Here's one from the same wedding. It's the groom with his parents. I was looking for something a little different from the usual family shots...

Hey slejhamer,

That's a great test. I'd have never thought of that. Thanks for sharing!!!

I can just imagine the couple keeping that shot as a favourite for years to come (hopefully they will stay married unlike most of us!)

The second shot was interesting and rather offbeat for a wedding although I've seen wedding photographers do some odd things over the years (c'mon boys lets jump and do the Toyota commercial "Oh what a feeling!") but to me it looks like a picture begging for a speech bubble above the grooms head, perhaps thats just my sick sense of humor though.

The tux appears a very solid colour all over and I'd love to see it captured in colour (if it ever was) although the ground may be a little overwhelming if its green. Great shot nonetheless.

I loved these photos!

i dont know much about the technical aspects of photography but i just loved the compositions. Speaking as a bride to be, i hope i manage to find a photographer who will break from the norm and achieve such fab shots as i often find 'traditional' wedding photos very dull.

i would love to see more like those?

Louise,

I'm away from my home computer at the moment, but I can post some more wedding photos later, if you like these...

I don't know where in the world you are, but if you pay for a return ticket and my accommodation, I'll do your wedding shoot for free!

And yes, I have a passport!

Louise,

I'm in Australia.

If you want to see more photos from the same wedding, go to www.rudiphoto.net/wedd​ing

If you'd like to see some more photos from other weddings I have done in the past, let me know, and I'll put up a page for you somewhere.

You know, depending on who you hire for wedding photography, this could even work out cheaper for you! 8)

Either way, good luck!

Oh well it was a nice idea while it lasted

It was a nice idea, wasn't it?

I wish I could recommend someone local to you, but while I know quite a few people in Scotland, not one of them is a photographer. They're all good drinking buddies, though!

All the best in your search!

Gosh, those photos almost make me want to get married.

Almost.

Great photos...I really like them.

Thanks Ajax, but don't go getting married on account of my photos...
