Here are few pics that I tried my hand at after getting VSCO films yesterday. I got the standard package but I think this one does pretty neat job. This set is from my very first wedding as a second shooter.
CnC please.

    First - congrats on getting them!

    Second - can you do some side-by-side before and afters?

    Looking great, although I'd probably prefer to reduce the opacity of ALL the images' filtering by 20-30%. Just looks a bit much. It might be caused by the fact that all of the people images have shadowed eyes; and the images are all a little dark in general. But I'm liking the looks in general!

    One more thing if you are interested in getting Camerabag 2 it is available thru Apple App Store for $19 which is cheaper than VSCO films. Camerabag2 is standalone application but you should be able to launch it from LR3 just like any other application and return your result back into LR3.

    VSCO responds the best to properly exposed images with perfect white balance. The main benefit of VSCO is to achieve better skin tones. With great exposure and wb to start your skin tones should be great anyway- VSCO enhances them to emulate the look of film.

    I would spend more time with your raw processing to fix the underexposure of your images and the white balance issues. You'll see a huge difference to how a VSCO preset responds after that :)

    You have to make a perfect exposure to get the best results from VSCO.
