all of the light in this picture is flash...really tested the limits of radio popper range on this one.

The Nu-school (DSLR) videographer set up this hot light in an shoot thru umbrella, but wash sheepish to use it because it was sun-like. I told him he shouldn't put it up in vain and if he was going to pop it off do it on the last dance...This is all his lovely light.

    Beautiful and creative shoe shot, among many others. And 20 is a wall hanger; hope they buy a huge canvas of that!

    First - I love your ring shot, #10 and #18 :) The upper corners of 18 are a little bit unrealistic in color, but I think that since the whole image is saturated that it's not a detriment.

    20 has a ton of potential... I might bring the contrast up a tad and bump the vibrance so that the colors in the background sing a little bit so the couple pops out a little more. The composition and mood is spot on, so I think with a couple tiny adjustments this one could be a seriously amazing. :)

    I wonder about shooting heavier couples. I learned (from our own lovely Heather) that shooting from a level below their chin is one of the less-flattering positions. I wonder whether you might have tried any shots from a little bit higher position so we could see what that looks like? I am sure that there are other little tricks to help flatter the larger individuals (I know that there is something about making sure that the woman's arm is away from her body - maybe hand on her hip) or covering it with the veil... though I understand that during a wedding you don't always get time to do exactly what you'd like to do :)
