Friends wedding shots

I was able to talk to the pro beforehand and he was completely cool about me shooting it as well:barb

I'm sure I'm getting better since the only post I did was white balance and small exposure adjustments.

Here are a few of my favorites.

C&C always welcome.

1 and 2 look like they still might have a bit of a yellowish cast. I am also wondering why 5 is fairly noisy yet was an ISO400 capture. Is this a tight crop from a wider shot?

Looking at the gallery, it appears you did a good job. Seems as if the ceremony was in tight quarters....yikes. You have a photo of the bride and flower girl with a starry flare behind them. Did you use a filter, photoshop, or luck to get the star?

Skin looks to have a yellow cast due to the BG.I thought it was my eyes, but I guess it's the skin tones. Thanks, I'll fix that easy peasy.

This is an inherant problem w/ the D50. Even if you use superior glass, it gets all kinds of nasty when you bump the ISO and it tries to grab light. I don't really bother w/ this too much since I rarely shoot w/o lights or an ISO over 200. Once I can justify a nice wedding as the photog that's getting paid. It's D200 time

Sort of the last one. I saw the shot w/ the sun, dropped the aperture so the flash could still work and 1/2 power, said a quick prayer and took the shot!

Here's the shot jeffeaux was talking about:


Thanks for your critique and taking the time to browse the rest of the shots. It's exactly what I'm looking for!

All the best,

2nd, 5th and 6th are pretty good. I agree with some yellowish on the first shot. Nice going!
