Fri-Monday shooting a wedding on the coast of Oregon

Forgive the image dump, but it's been a while...And...If it looks set up, it wasn't; if it's square, it was shot that way...:D

Especially 4 & 6

not so keen on the last, but the juxtaposition is cool

really keep coming back to #6

It's hard to comment on that many images at once, but I'll agree with Ben that the last one seems the most out of place. Otherwise, there's a wonderful vibe to the setting and shots and that's a great beach.

Last one is out of place in the sense that it's of the wedding. Groom and officiant wondering wth the bride is and why she hasn't shown up on time. :-)

Someone's been reading too many 'how to' books about what a person is 'supposed to' look like.

And they make a lovely couple! .

Vibe-wise, they all had such a lazy sense of space to them except the last which is something between bewilderment and consternation.

! Yah, that last one really doesn't belong. I'll take it down and add one that really does belong there.

who?

you don't think the unposed pose looks odd? To me it looks like she is asleep and he is holding her up by her neck. I don't think that is what the image should convery in the context of the set. If the oddity of pose those IS the image then it is not done purposefully enough or unporposefully enough to make it interesting!

As a candid portait or a candid candid..a tosser for me.

Well Lord knows you're entitled to your opinion.

Well Lord knows you're entitled to your opinion. Mine is that perhaps you expect things to look a certain way, and don't think they look right if they don't meet that expectation. What I see here is 'surrender;' she is completely relaxed, comfortable, with him. But I could be wrong - and it will hardly be the first time I have been.

Nothing in the set says "wedding" but I love the set as a weekend at the beach. These capture the ambience of the freedom and playfulness that come with the setting. Each image can stand alone, yet still add to the set (minus the last...).
