  Natalie I'm going to give this a go...
but I'm not a professional so please bear with me as I try to express myself :)
I'll go in order of your gallery..

1. Love the creative framing. Nice portraits. If I was to change anything it would be the photo of the bride sitting, I'd make it straight.

2. Lovely light and soft focus. Seems oversharped but as I have noticed myself, things change as they get uploaded. Would love to see the original if you care to email me. Again I'm not so sure about the tilted angle, but that is just a personal preference.

3. Really sweet! I love this one. The bride seems content and secure, the groom is beaming with pride!

4. A nice little collage...liked the idea of the paintbrush border better though :)

5. This one is my favorite! It is very well done. Great shots, great presentation.

Please feel free to go through my portraits of my daughter that I just posted today. I was hoping for more feedback (good or bad) than they have recieved. She would like me to do her senior portraits so we were on a test run the other day to see what works and what doesn't.

I'd appreciate it...happy 4th Natalie!

  very well done. In think, professional level.
One thing. I would be a bit more selective of angled shots chosen. These have to be spot on with ambience/personality of subjects.

  Thanks guys, I appreciate your response. Susan - I will check your gallery out asap!

Rick, thanks for your input - I know what you mean, these two were very difficult to photograph (it was my brother in law) and his bride wasn't too happy about getting her photos taken, it was an effort just to get her to smile! (You couldn't wipe the smile off my face on my wedding day - but oh well).

So I really didn't want to push and be too selective about posses when all I was saying was "smile", smile!!!!. The third photo, was taken from a higher angle and I think it is the most flattering. Both of them are taller than me I am only 5ft 3in, so I am usually shorter than everyone!!! Makes it difficult.
