    Very nice Shannon. I love the set up of the first picture and wish that she was looking at the camera. You did a nice job with these and should be proud

    Shannon, these are nice, but you are really teasing us by not showing any closeups of the bride. Don't hold out on us!

    I absolutely LOVE the pose and colors in #5. On my monitor it seems like it might benefit from some fill in PS.

    Just gorgeous! Can't wait to see the headshots. :D

    Great job! My favorite is #5. It really shows off the line of her dress/body by having it out of the way but it just seems a bit off headscratch.gif .

    Anyway, these are all great shots and I can't wait to see the headshots. clap.gif

    Two close ups
    I really wish that the black and white wouldn't have been so shadowy, but it was a bright day, and the sun kept shifting. Anyway, here are two close ups.

    Totally agree with Mitchell. These are far away pictures...hard to see the emotion that the bride is portraying in these photos. However, I do like the background and the various spots you photographer. Nice work.

    I really like the posing in #1 and #2. Number 4 appears to be unposed and is much better IMHO for that.

    On the chance that you might want some critique that may help you make even better photos in the future:
    • Many of these could use some fill. It appears that you were exposing for the gown rather than for her face so her face is quite dark in these.
    • Photo #2 (and others), you are working with blotchy/mottled light. This makes for some very distracting hot spots and also makes it harder to get a good exposure on her face.
    • #4, I think I would crop the corner of the building
    • #5, I think I would crop the column on the left

    Thank you Scott, as always you cc is welcomed and appreciated. I was aiming for exposure on the dress because the sun was so bright, my histogram was going crazy with blown highlights. Anyway, I'll try cropping the way you suggested, and see how it looks.

    Thanks again:D
