    I agree, I wasn't feeling great about the editing on that one.

    I think you did a great job, they should be very happy with the results.

    That is so funny that you mention she looks a little like Taylor Swift because I told her the very same thing. In fact we worked at a resturaunt together and I was telling everyone how she looked like her and no one thought so- and I knew there was something about those eyes that screamed Taylor to me!

    Maybe not, but you got a killer bokeh.

    I was using a 50mm 1.4. Usually I have it set anywhere from 1.8-2.8 or higher. I haven't nailed down the science behind it all, I guess I just do what gets me the results I like. :)

    I am a big fan of bokeh!

    I think they are pretty darn good for your second wedding! I would say that the vignette looks to be a bit much too me and I agree that the softening filter on that last one is a little too strong. That said, you did a great job with the light!

    In both of those portraits, the bride looks like she has "beady little eyes". I would hope that there are also a few other closer portraits that let us see her eyes a little more, and maybe get a little more light shining into her eyes to get a catchlight at the very least...

    That's just what comes to mind. The images look great in general, aside from the very heavy "dreamy" effect which I would lose. You will look back on it and shake your head, trust me on this one! :-P
