Just thought I would share a few photos from Satruday, I took 1700 pictures that day but only had time to post just a few for now. I have another wedding this weekend, work full time and will be on vacation for 8 days, I can't wait to dive in and start processing the photos from this wedding 
<br>Lenses used were 70-200 2.8is and 17-55 2.8is
<br>I have to say that I have learned so much from this forum and it's users, I am so glad that I found this forum!! I felt so comfortable at this wedding with my camera and it's settings that I was able to venture out of my comfort zone, playing around with different aperatures, shutter speeds, higher ISO's, no flash, and off camera flash.
<br>A HUGE thanks to everyone who posts and is so open with ideas and critiques when they post!:clap
<br>

But a nice set!
www.tednghiem.com
(And I really like #4 otherwise)
Nikon D300, 18-135/3.5-5.6, 70-300/4.5-5.6, SB800
All the rest are a little underexposed.
In 4 she is pushing her arm down not letting it hang relaxed.
In 7 the dress is blown along the back and the photo needs more contrast overall.
Really a nice set overall, I am only pointing out a few small things for your continued development.
When it is flat light the contrast will need to be bumped without blowing the dress.... a bit of a tightrope.
The couple is going to love these.
I am sure you have tons more good ones in there, have fun with the processing.
Nice job on these!

Hahaha, the arm does look funny, never noticed that, I did only spend about 10 minutes getting the pics uploaded so didn't study them real close, may have missed it anyways though!
Zoomer, I will keep that exposure in mind, maybe boost it a little. I thought they looked pretty good but I do have a fear of overexposing the photos, and yes I have a ton more that are just awesome! Will try and post a link when I get them all finished.

bloomphotog: thanks for looking and commenting, I sure hope they will love them, I did their engagement photos also and they were thrilled so I'm sure they will be happy with these too!!
joshhuntnm: thanks for looking and commenting! I can explain the lighting in #4, behind and above her to the left of the photo was a window, I think that is what brightened up the wall behind her, then at the bottom of the stairs I had one 580ex mounted on a light stand with a 48 inch shoot through umbrella (from Alien Bees) to the right, I brought the flash and umbrella up real high on the stand so the light could reach her face, behind me there was also a window so that would have been directly in front of her, that window may or may not have helped out since it was so much lower than she was.
farnsworthphotography: thanks for the compliments, if you need more ideas feel free to check out my previous wedding galleries, I do post all formals under one gallery so they are easy to get too. I also have a binder with tons of ideas I take with me the day of the wedding, I'm always pretty nervous so when I start getting brain fade I can go to the binder for inspiration, it also helps the people you are trying to pose understand your idea if you can show it to them!! http://www.picturegirlphotos.com/Weddings

I posted the best 148 pictures only into this gallery. I just don't have time to process all the pics anymore like I used too so I am going to try something new. I will choose the best 150 and post those into a gallery the rest will be put into locked galleries undedited. Not very comfortable posting unedited pics but I just don't see any other way to do it. This was the last wedding I posted that has all the "proofs" edited my following weddings/proofs are being posted to smug mug without being edited.

Anyone else post your weddings this way?

Thanks again everyone for your feedback!
