Another First Wedding

My wife and I shot our first wedding this weekend. Any comment would be helpful, I know our formals are on the week side but the bride said she did not want any artsy formal shots, just the standard. And yes the whole wedding was done with Pentax DSLRs

Thank you Kidzmom and BuddyLee. I really kind of fear the formals but next time my wife and I will have a list of shots for the formals which might help. The next wedding we shoot, there is a two hour break between the wedding and reception so we will have a lot more time plus the bride wants a lot of shots.

wow.. first wedding and everything is amazing already! way to go!
i love your monochrome conversion by the way. you have your way of making the details stand out even more in b&w.
Care to share how its done?

Thank you zer0type!
A lot of these are in B&W because they were so noisy I just could not get them to look good in color. All ceremony shots, for the most part, were shot at 3200 ISO on a CMOS. I used Lightroom 2 for all the editing. On the B&W images I converted to grayscale, than played around with the Vignettes, and midpoint slider so get the effect I desired. Once I liked it I saved it as a pre-set to use on Most the B&W images.
