wedding shots: a few different ones.

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

was it a pose or just spure of the moment while the bride rushed to have her dress strapped up?

Great photos Padey. My only question with the second shot (and it's a probably very stupid question) - where the male hands from two different blokes? The right hand has the suit sleeve down whilst the left hand doesn't.

Cheers

No it's the same guy. He is hugging his bride from behind, hence the streach.

I like the second image and the concept of the first, but the odd DOF in #1 distracts me with the beading on the right and the upper hand on the left in sharp focus. For me I'd have preferred both hands in focus to grab my eye (and yes I'm being picky since I know hard it would be to achieve that in the environment you were working in - I'm just being greedy)

I think it's terrific to see something a little bit "different" in wedding albums, shows creativity... Checked out the album, you have some very nice shots in there... Particularly liked:

Well done...

Greedy and Picky is why we come to 'reviews and critiques'.

All coments are welcome.

i've heard about those types of wedding, you usually bring your own baby oil.

I purchased a Teddy Bear this morning for the sum of $10. I named him Mohammed. This afternoon I sold him on E-Bay for $30. My question is, "Have I made a prophet?"
