I helped a friend out with a wedding the other day and this was probably the only serious shot we got! They were such a fun couple.

This is the bw version. I can not decide which I like better. I would love to know what you all think.

  BOTH!! I am no help, when I saw the color one I loved it and then you added the BW, so both!!
This has such emotion, especially on such a memorable day, really well done, I love it!!

  Wonderful portrait, Sandy! Both are great but I'm partial to the B/W version. It just looks so timeless and classic. Just beautiful!

  So beautiful, Sandy! Wonderful tender moment you've captured! She has such beautiful blue eyes that really stand out in the color version, but B&W is so classic, sorry but both!!

  Sandy, they are both beautiful...terrific job. Of the wedding work I have seen of yours so far you are gonna be really busy once your portfolios get out!!
I really am partial to B&W though...just a personal preferance though.
I am sorry I haven't been around lately...I will have to check out your gallery and see what beauty's I have missed:)

  Thanks everyone for your wonderful remarks. You all have the same debate I do. I like the color for her eyes and I like the bw for the classic look. Too hard. I guess I will leave it up to them!! :)

  Wonderful wedding photo! It's absolutely gorgeous! I agree with all the other comments, both are spectacular! I can see why you have such a hard time deciding. I prefer the black and white, but just by a slim margin, they are both stunning!

  W O W ! ! !

No matter how you slice it ~ your wedding work is outstanding. And, I vote for the color version of this image; you've really nailed the skin tones and the background color adds to the mood.

WELL DONE!!!
