Hmm.. Really? I actually brought DOWN the saturation on almost the entire set of photos [Straight out of camera].
I just re-calibrated my monitor right before editing... Guess it's an opinion thing

Thanks for the input,

Uploaded a few more photos to flickr - Here's the set http://www.flickr.com …e/sets/72157625​942991432/

Am I seeing halos around the couple in the last shot?

maybe it's just me but the only natural looking one to me is #3... maybe someone else will chime in...

Yeah, which is why I said; "(too much editing?)"
It looked perfect in LR and PS, but got a little "distorted" when uploading to flickr.

I like #3 and #4.

And yeah, I think #6 is over-edited. Still, nice set of photos.

I for one like bright colors, so I don't think they're that saturated. I don't understand the "washed out" look a lot of people are going for now. I'm wondering if 30 years from now people will look back on them and say "wow, it looks like they were shot on out of date slide film." I dunno. And yeah, the editing went a little too far on the last one.

Is this at San Juan Capistrano?

Yes... [generally an over-shot place, but this couple insisted - so we tried to find some new\unique spots]

#3 looks the most natural to me, but the skin looks as if it's on the pink side a bit. Maybe a slight white balance adjustment would fix that. #5 in black and white would be make for an awesome photograph.
