Default Wedding Shots and then some...

All,

The following are photos I took at a wedding last weekend. Here are some of my shots after I toyed with them in Lightroom which I had never used until recently. I was not the photographer for the wedding so my shots were candid for the most part.

I am looking for some critiques. I am new to taking photos for more than just taking a picture. I thoroughly enjoy capturing the beauty and detail of a scene, but also being able to be creative with the angle and trying to capture something special. I have a long way to go I know with that being said.

My photos can be viewed at tFlickr: mr_e_mn007's Photostream

Here a couple that I really like:

IMG_3879

Thanks in advance for any and all reviews,

jG

Unless the bride was a hippo, there's no wedding photos in your flickr stream.

Overall, I think they're pretty good shots. There are a few things that I might do a little differently though, mainly some cropping in #1 & #4, and warming up the color temperature in #4. I also added some vignette to #1 so the corner of the picture with her dress didn't look so sharp after cropping. Of course, that's all just my opinion, so take it with a big grain of salt

I hope you don't mind, I made the changes suggested to give you an idea of what I was meaning. Again, they are nice pictures though.

Thank you for the reply I appreciate any advice I can get. I do like the crop and tone for sure.

Thanks again,

jG
