Oh yeah 19!! Made me stop and think about the set up, did it just occur to you or have you seen it before?

No unfortunately, there was another wedding going on at the same time that was using that room.

Me too on 19...nicely done. About your window shots with the bride...nice natural light. In all window shots with the bride, Photoshop out the light bar at the bottom of the door, if it's there. It's very distracting. And, I'd darken the door/BG a little to fade it some...just to see if I liked it a little better...but, that's just me...you might like it that way...try it and see if you think it makes it better or worse...

Also, just noticed that in a couple of the bride shots by the window...right in front of the bouquet and down a little, there's a reflection on the window frame that you might want to think about getting rid of...image 6.

Here's something else that I'd try...just to see if you think it makes it better. Put the RAW file into Lightroom, if you have it, and push the kelvin slider up. I find that sometimes this makes the image pop. Your images here appear to be a bit too blue...just a suggestion...I'm on my uncalibrated laptop.

Also, the big blue dot in the middle of image 13 is not good.

Just looked at the staircase...man, that's really too bad that another party was using it. Your bride is nice looking and on the staircase...that could have been a killer shot...

Very nice job...nice images...I hope you're charging enough for your services...these are worth a couple of thousand.

Oh well, just my thoughts...

Wow!! 19 is awesome!
what was the set up for it?

GRod · August 30, 2012

Great job! Excellent attention to details. No. 19 is a home run. Your images tell a story...not everyone can do that! Congrats!

Great set. I agree, 19 is stunning!

Robert_C · August 31, 2012

Wow. Other than #19 being awesome, every shot are great captures.

the setup was pretty simple: just a single speedlight placed in front of the bride and triggered wirelessly. the reflections were by chance due to the highly laquered doors - but sometimes accidents work for the better, haha!

thanks very much for your comments, everyone!
