Not MY second wedding, I mean only the second one Ive photographed ;)

The bride has has specifically asked for low saturation, B+W, selective colouring, sepia etc all the way through the album, as it fits the theme of her wedding, very old fashioned, held in a big marquee with crystal chandeliers, bunting, odd china plates and cupcakes! Therefore, I know the processing isnt consistant, but that is what the bride requested, and I honour her wishes above everything.

Here we go, comments good or bad... you need to be honest with me please!

I really do think they are great. Lovely photos and nice that they are what the Bride wanted too. Loving the feel of informalilty of them, they really seem to capture the mood of the day. Excellent job :)

My favourites are:

7,8,11,12,14,16,17,22,23,24,25. :D

As Mubs said, really capture the mood. Look like a lovely fun, stylish couple.

A really really nice set of photos there, i'd be chuffed with those, I think the only one i'd not buy if it were my set is 7 as its not so flattering on the brides face.

Really good work :)

Number 7 will have some skin smoothing applied before she sees it :)

I'm a bit confused by picture number 2 - It seems out of place as the skin colouring looks wrong to be the brides hand although I can't quite tell because the ring looks similar to that in picture number 10. If it's not the brides hand then I can't see anyone else that it belongs to so I'm confused.

Kitten here :

yeah I think it is the brides hand and I think that's why Dee made a point of saying that she knows the processing isnt consistant :)

Unless the ring is a 'borrowed' thing? But I think it's the brides hand.

It looks like you're absolutely bang on to the brief she gave you. Well done Dee, they're absolutely lovely photos :)

Thank you Kate, really means a lot :)

Number 2 is indeed the bride, thats her engagement ring :)

Great shots i would be interested in seeing how some of them would look as sepia compared to the black and white versions.

Good point. I think sepia would be very in keeping with the whole period feel of the wedding too. Might be worth doing a few and seeing what your clients think? :)

I have to admit, there's one thing I find a little scary and that's the piccy of the feet one - the little girls feet (third from the left) looks like they're floating! In fact... both of the the girlies feet in the photo look like they're floating!

*cue eerie moosic* DOodoo doooOdooo dooDOoodoooDOoo

;D

And yeh Dee, you've improved massively, I'm really impressed :)

Thanks Jen, glad you like them :)

Very kind, thanks Dunketh :)

wow. 14 is awesome.

That was one of my faves as well, her expression is priceless! She had just pulled confetti from down her dress and thrown it in the canal ;D

And yeh Dee, you've improved massively, I'm really impressed :)

Thanks Pheebs, but Ill never look at the feet one again without hearing Twilight Zone music or something ;D

Did the bride and groom discuss shots with you beforehand?

I love the one of you taking a picture of the guy taking a picture. Really cool. Obviously the rest are great as well; that one just stands out as it is so different.

They did. They said just catch everyone unawares, they didnt want any formal shots at all :)

Thanks SF, Ive never done that before, was pleased with how it came out :)
