  Very nicely done. You have managed to also catch intimate moments, and they are the most important since it is a very intimate time. Bottom line. It doesn't matter what I or anyone else thinks. It is what the client thinks that is all that matters. Each one is different and when they look at your portfolio, they will say yeh or ney based on your abbility to provide the style that they are looking for. It does not mean that your work is no good if they chose to go soemwhere else, it just means that they are looking for something else.

  Hi there, what wonderful shots! Especially considering you have only done 3. Well done.

A few things I noticed though:

Some of the shots look a little cool, maybe warm up the skin tones a little (not all the shots though).

Some of the outdoor shots (close ups) maybe needed a little fill flash to
brighten up their faces.

Photos don't look sharp - but I presume that is just a re-sizing and downloading issue to get on BP.

Shot of the bride by herself (the tilted one) in my opinion is too tilted. But again it is only my opinion. Just looks like you really can't hang it without wondering which way - horizontal she looks like she is leaning too far back, and vertical, she would be leaning too far forward. Just a slight tilt is nice. Don't get me wrong, I am very fond of the camera tilt. I do it all the time.

I hope this helps.

  Thank you

Some of them do have a softener on them which may make them ,look blury.

Your right about the tilt. I was trying to avoid some annoying distractions in the background. It is to tilted.

The lighting was a wee bit difficult as it was 6:00 pm and my batteries went dead on my flash. A mistake that will not be made again. I lightened them in Ps, the best I could.

Thank you all for your responses, the bride did love them but I am still unsure as what to charge. I have two interested brides.
