Default Today's Wedding

Suffering from a rather bad back issue, and it was hot as hell, but... the client's gotta have the shots! Here's a couple from today's shoot - Dutch couple flew to the Bahamas for a beach wedding:







Still can't figure out the last one. Something makes me like it, but I don't know why!

Excellent photos. I just feel like the couple should be closer together in the last photo. Love the second one, but horizon looks slightly sloping to the right.

Looks like you got some good shots. I am sure the couple will be very happy.

hanks folks.

For the last one, this was a 'candid shot, not one that was staged, so I didn't have any control over their positions. Still has something that works for me!

And yes, I need to straighten the ocean shot!

I love the 2nd one, the colors are so vibrant and the vignetting works well with the picture.

Very nice shots! I particularly like the last photo. It leaves alot to the imagination-are they gazing into each others eyes and what are they thinking about. Just evokes emotion.

#2 is my GREAT! I wish her dress were flowing instead of being held, and I would have shot it in landscape to open the space she's looking in to. Otherwise, it looks magazine-worthy to me.

The third photo looks a little too stiff and posed for me and I can't find anything of interest to justify cutting off the heads.

But...it's all in the eye of the beholder!
