Here's a few from last Friday's wedding. Here's a few from the bridal preparation, comments welcomed:

This was one of my most enjoyable weddings yet, the bride particularly was so at ease, and very naturally happy and not stressed out - it was a pleasant surprise and I really enjoyed working with her, and her new husband and the bridal party. Will post some more in the coming week.

Great stuff, Geoff! The last one is the winner, in my opinion - the exposure and WB are spot on, the composition is also very good. I think No. 1 has WB a bit too warm and slightly underexposed.

Thanks Alex. I haven't teaked these images to their full potential as yet, but see what you mean about the WB in #1.

Here's a little action I created and use a fair bit on females...you probably know and use this but just in case you don't...
IN PHOTOSHOP...control + J to copy the image...FILTER/OTHER/HIGHPASS and dial in a fair bit, about 30. Experiment with the amount. IMAGE/ADJUSTMENTS/INVERSE and then BLUR/GAUSIAN...about 3 and finally in the layers pallete...change the blend mode to soft light and dial down the opacity to suit. Don't overdo it. You can rub through the top layer with a 50% erasor to bring back detail in the eyes, lips jewelry etc.
This makes brides glow. I don't do this to every pic...only those that will suit the procedure. I think some of your shots might glow with the treatment.
Nice images!
