    Ack I totally missed the person! I cloned them out of most of the other images, but somehow missed this one, stupid white blending in... yes it was a golf course. Poplar Creek.

    I like the set. #10 is my favorite, then #4. The flag doesn't bother me that much, but it's easy to remove. I would probably center the couple in #11. They are not far enough to the right for the image to work for me.

    Not to repeat everyone else, but #2 is a real winner! But I think my favorite from the set is #7, I just really like how that one came out! Awesome work all around.

    Really nice series of photos and have to agree that #2 rocks.... well they all do, that just rocks harder :)

    I'm here to learn so please feel free to give me constructive criticism to help me become the photographer I desire to be.

    Really like #2. The emotion you captured in #10 is perfect!

    Nice set...two and ten are definitely my favorites. Ummmh...and six...I like six too.

    Couple of nits.

    1. You missed the focus...the nostrils are in focus, her eyes are not...depth of field was a little shallow. The camera appears to have picked up the wrong focal point.

    2. Really like this one.

    4. Yep, clone the guys out...like was said before. Has a nice feel to it...emotion and interaction.

    5. Fix that slight tilt...it's almost hidden by your water mark...looks like it happened because you didn't want you in the reflection to appear in the door. Something else you might want to consider...make the foreground one color...get rid of that sunny triangle cutting through the grass. Clone and tone in some grass from the shaded area.

    6. I like this one...the classic just before the reward shot...she looks like she's about to get something special...nice capture. More of this kind...

    9. Looks like she's a little stiff...not much emotion. Nice picture, though.

    10. Please fix her belly bulge. Not flattering. Other than that, 10 is nice.

    11. Same as 10...has more emotion than 9. His hand on her hip would have helped a lot to hide that belly bulge. Having his hand in his pocket...why. Look at where his hand is in 9...makes a world of difference in how her belly looks.

    Just some thoughts as I looked over your set.
    Remember, no one may want you to take pictures, but they all want to see them.
    Educate yourself like you'll live forever and live like you'll die tomorrow.

    I love 2, 3, 8 (of course.. you rock those rings, girl!) & 10

    7 seems way oversaturated (which I don't mind for the blues, but the oranges are cranked a bit much) . I suspect the lady nearest has a white shirt on, but it looks blue to me due to the processing. I am sure it is too late to make any changes, but you might want to dial that one in a bit.

    I love your work Cat!

    Thanks Heather! And yeah I cranked the **** out of the saturation on 7 so I could get the cool looking sky... but good point on the back lady in the white shirt, she was wearing white! The bride liked it so much that we used it as a faded background image on one of her album pages.

    iloveyou.gifThat looks super nice, Cat! Love your little tiny bit of a stroke and the shadow. A very nice balance.

    Shima: Sometimes you can just raise the blues in Lr if you want the sky to look more saturated. Or you can just saturate everything and lower the orange just a tad to get the skin tones back.

    that dress looks incredibly heavy :D

    nice work, some do look a little saturated, but that was already discussed.
