My sisters pre-wedding shots

My youngest sister has asked me to shoot her wedding in a few weeks and she wanted to do a surprise picture of her in her wedding dress, to give to her husband on their wedding night. For some reason the lighting really fought me on this one. The light meter said to shoot @ F4.5 but the exposure looked really blown at anything less than 10.0...finally took the shots at F10 and wasn't really happy with the results myself but she thought they were great. C&C is always welcome as usual as this is how we improve. First shot was just of the bouquet that she hand made herself......second is of her in her gown. Everything shot with a 5D with 28-75 Tamron lens. Thanks for looking!

The shots are fine......no2 looks like the white balance could be off, her skin is a bit orange. Then it could just be my computer. Cheers

Actually now that you mention it her skin looks kind of magenta on my laptop..............ma​ybe this screen needs to be calibrated. The pic printed fine though...............?​?

is the second shot meant to be a studio shot?

We used the alien bees and white muslin so I guess you could say it was a studio shot but we were just going for a nice pic. What would you have done differently to make it a true studio shot? Any input is always appreciated.
