7 & 9!

I think #2 is my favorite. Classic framing, sharp, vibrant color, a beautiful background that doesn't distract from the couple, and a great pose. Well done, Cat.

Excellent work. My favorite would be #10 followed very closely by #7 and #3.

Awesome shots. If we're supposed to rate them, I'd say 1, 10, 6, and 11, followed very closely by every single other one. Ok, 9 I'm not in love with. But otherwise, these are really, really, good.

Cheers,

Hey girl! Love that you got!!
1 - (Dancing shot) Very pretty
2 - (Kiss at fireplace). Wonderful light!!
3 - (couple sitting in little booth) .... hmmmm, not quite "agreeing" with that one, I personally don't like the perspective. If you would have gone down to their eye level I think this pic could have been much better
4 & 5 - (cake topper) - Haha!
6 - (shot outside). SUCH a nice shot, but I woudl have tried to persuade her to take off this jacket :cry
7 - (Kiss outside) Ohhhh-lalala
8 - (Dancing veil shot)
9 - (Ring shot) - She did it again I'd crop / lone out the thingy on the left ....
10 - (Bride looking at reflection). Nicely done!
11 - (Bride / veil shot). Nice, classic shot, ... did you get an other one of her looking up at you?
12 - (Couple kissing outside). Ohhhhh-lalalalalala. Love it

I really like this bunch! It's funny though how we all have our preferences. One of your first commenters loves #2, while I say it's my LEAST fave. It's just so traditional. BUt not puttin ya down, I'm just making a point how we all like different things. Traditional or not, you still nailed the shot.

My favorite is #1 all the way! Then, 7, 10 , 11. Great stuff! Good solid quality photography.

Wow thanks for all the great commentary / feedback!

Yeah I agree it's amusing to read the feedback on how some people love what other people just didn't think that much of

Angie: I have some with and some without jacket there, but I just loved the way her veil and everything flowed for that one. And yes for the me looking down on her shot, I do have some of her looking up. Still editing lots!

Some people might love and some might be with things.

that cake looks good to eat.... I need to stop looking at cakes.

5 and 7 are my favorites, did you get any verticals of 7 that are not tilted, that is such a great setting.

On the first clone that siren light off the top of his head.

Looks like the couple is having fun, I bet this wedding was a blast to shoot.

Very nice series in a very nice setting of a very attractive couple...Kudos to you!!

Just to qualify my original post.
The photographs are all wonderful and an inspiration. It's interesting that you mentioned preferences, as my wife was viewing the gallery with me last night and it was different images again that caught her eye.
