The final shot is gorgeous. Your b/ws are a little dark, especially the group shot. The color shots are cool.

I love all of them but number #4...I wish she would've been looking over her shoulder at the camera...not sure what she is looking at. :dunno . Excellent job.:thumb

These are all amazing, some of my favorite wedding images I've seen in a while. They're all fresh, modern, and elegant. I love the group shot, the bride's pose is so relaxed.

3 is great, a very intimate and affectionate pose, without seeming forced at all.

5 is an awesome capture, although agree its a little dark, and I lean toward dark BWs myself.

I love the shots of them together, and agree that 13 is a masterpiece.

All in all a very satisfying set, and makes me want to see the entire gallery. Your style and approach are very inspiring! Thanks for sharing!

Lovely images- good job.

I don't do weddings at all but my 6yo daughter is the flower girl in a wedding the weekend after next. I am very nervous about getting some decent 'dad' pictures...:D

Great shots, all of them. I found your colored ones more appealing, they have great saturation and contrast. #2 looks a little dark and also it looks tilted to the right. Wonderful work! :barb

I agree with most everyone here: #13 == WOW! :thumb

But I'm also partial to #9 and #10. :D

If this is pre-wedding, I wonder how the wedding shots will look like!

Great work!

Thanks so much for sharing!
Take care!

Thanks to everyone for your very very kind comments. Wow:lust That does my heart good!

Well This was my first wedding, and it was very intimidating as the bride is a photographer. She has always encouraged my work however and I was shocked, and scared when she asked me.

I am very pleased with the way these turned out, and have since gone back and re fixed the black and whites and thank you as I totally missed the tilt in the group photo

13 was a fluke...as I find most great shots to be...but I was so pleased with it, and it definitly needs to be the duotone that it is as the color and b&w didn't do it any justice!
