C&C welcome!

First seems like there might be a slight bluish tint to the dress and a bit of overexposure. Can't really see any detail at all in the dress. Also, the post is growing out of the grooms head.

For the second, killer shot...just wish they were a bit further to the right of the frame.

For the third, I wish your flash would have been dialed down a bit. The direct flash is causing some shadow issues.

The fourth is a bit weird.

The fifth is very nice.

The sixth is a bit weird. I know what you did, I'm just not sure why.

In any case, overall a nice set. I'm sure the Bride and Groom will be happy.

Overall, there is really something wrong with your compression for web view. How do you size it for the web? Below are my CCs.

Samples from my recent wedding:

Was this the first kiss or a posed shot? If it was a posed shot.. you really didnt pick the best background (column sticking out of his head).

Best shot you got here. Pretty tight though. I mean if you frame this, the dress and the bouquet will get cut off.

Not wide enough. Not sure how bright the sparkles are but a lot of people dont use flash with this scenario and turn out great. Kinda like this from a quick google search : http://luciaisabellablog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Angie-Bill-Wedding-Preview.jpg

Not feeling it.

You need to get closer to the ring. Right now the flowers get the attention and the flowers look soft.

too tight. Too much ambient for dragging the shutter.

C&C welcome!

You have a whole wedding and you showed these 6 photos? I expect a lot stronger images. Only show best of the best man. Even on a photography forum. These photos represents your brand. Only post best of the best.

Some responses:

The compression comes from Facebook, not me.

1. It was not a posed shot, that was their kiss. I agree the dress is a bit blown out.
2. I have a few more of this pose, the bride and groom loved it
3. The sparkler thing was hilarious, because it was literally said to be as we were leaving the now-pitch-black beach to go up to the reception. I had never known this was a plan, and there just wasn't enough ambient light to do anything other than flash. Still, I did like the resulting shot anyway.
4. I happened to catch the reflection of them dancing, and I liked it. No worries if you don't.
5. I agree now that I see it like this, the ring should be more in focus. I'll have to look through and see if I got one like that. (Mental Note: Buy a Macro Lens)
6. I don't see how it's too tight. This was a real dance, during the party, so I got several of them while dragging the shutter, still using flash. I love the effect, but not everyone will.

Thanks for the feedback. I probably have some "better" photos, but this preview was originally posted to the Bride and Groom on FB and wanted to show them a variety of things, the night of the wedding. I'll post more later.
