Default My first wedding picture!

I went for the romantic bird perspective!

Was that a good choice - or should I have done it differently?

ISO 100, f/3.5 1/500!

The lego wedding

My family was in Legoland in Billund, Denmark - and just for fun I took this pic-ture in the small lego city.

I am not sure your perspective allowed you to get much detail in the faces of your subjects -- they look kind of featureless to me. Also the lighting makes it look like the couple have weird round knobs on their heads.

(That is hilarious. If I were 20 years younger I would say 'lol.')

Bulletproof glass in limo speaks of great wealth; you'd think the flowers for Bride and Groom would be of higher quality.

I think it's great! But don't you think the bride and groom look a bit plastic?

Great capture! I like that you got up high and shot down on the scene. Were you on a building across the street?

Plenty of DOF.

Only complaint is the shadow on the groom's face. Maybe some off camera fill would have helped.

A great shot that you could BUILD a whole portfolio around......
