These are so wonderful and make mine look inconceivable. I do know it takes time to get the experience and the knowledge to get that good..Just gives me something to strive to.

This is one to be jealous of for sure. You may want straiten it up a bit, the slight angle change of the building on the right is pretty distracting.
You're the second person to say that. It's tilted due to the sun hitting the ground, litterally RIGHT in front of them and I didn't want it in the shot. That having been said, when I look, I don't even notice the tilt.... I notice them.
I can PS in some foreground and fix the tilt without too much trouble. Thanks for the help.
My Best Friend...
This is one of my best friends. I wasn't her wedding photographer, but of course she let me "float" at the wedding and I managed to nab this and a handful of others that came out good (or at least I thought so). Anyway, two different versions of the same shot. Thoughts on either?

They are so prominent that the tilt doesn't bother me at all. I didn't notice it at first.

the b&w is a bad conversion from color. the midtones are muddled and so much of the shadow details are lost that the groom looks like he has nothing below his torso. pop the levels and move the mids and shadows around so there's some discernible details. i'd even overexpose by 1/3 or so just to give the picture some more pop.
I've only done one wedding. I shot it in a photojournalism style, which is to say "just me," with an eye for the honest unscripted moments of who we really are. For me these are the photos that truly speak and last. Two faves )

Both of these are really terrific! These are indeed the moments that the couple will still be appreciating 25 years from now - assuming that they're still together, long after the "Cinderella poses" are long forgotten.

Fantastic shot Mark! B&W works so well for this one + it's super sharp.

Thanks .... it was all about a good lookin' bride.
I have been working on B&W in LR2, trying to hone in a set technique.
BTW, the prints from EZphoto (16x20 and metallic finish) are fantastic for B&W.
