I'm not sure what to say about them. They're basic candids. Are you saying that you were the paid photographer and these are your best shots?

Hmmm I do enjoy candids over posed photos and I think they were some of my best shots at the wedding...so it's good to hear how others think about them. As you say, they seem like basic candids to you. Thanks for the feedback.

I don't think they are bad, and I don't think they look all that snapshotty. I have seen far worse posted here that people raved about lol. I think you did a pretty good job handling the hard sunlight in the first couple. I think your compositions could use a little more work, but I don't think they're bad.


I am super cool n' stuff.

I wouldnt call them snapshotty either, but they arent spectacular photographs.

Something I would give to the bride, yes. Something I would add to portfolio, no.

Thanks for all the feedback guys! Hmmm so my composition is TOO normal or what do you all think? It's a lot more challenging taking candit shots so I thought these were actually good but I am learning that they are just ok to most. Waiting to here more! :)

Its always hard to photograph white... but in some of them, don't neglect making the dress look fatastic, they spent a lot of money on that thing.

Watch your background.

They are nice casuals -- I would try to re-crop #1 to get the lady in the background out. #2 would be interesting, except she looks so angry. I like #3 the best. Nice job. :)

She looks really pissed off in #2. Other than that, nice snapshots. Candids can be hard and not hard at the same time when you are not the official photographer but new at it.
