Some really lovely shots there guys,

Toby, I think of yours, the couple in the car, the confetti shot (he's looking RIGHT at you!) and the bouquet are my favourites

You pleased with them?

Toby · 06-08-2011, 11:35

Thanks Kitten

I am pleased with them in general, in terms of the 'moments' I managed to capture. My two main concerns are firstly that I don't pay enough attention to backgrounds when composing and end up having to bin shots or heavily crop them and secondly that my PP skills are very lacking and I don't seem to be able to get the sharpness, clarity or 'punchiness' that others do from theirs. If anyone wants a copy of any of the RAW files to show me what they could do with them just let me know

I have put a full Flickr set up with around 150 shots but it's a private one as it's not my place to bandy shots of someone else's wedding around in public. If anyone is interested in just viewing or even critiquing then let me know and I'll forward a guest pass to the whole set.

ahaha! The background thing is the biggest lesson I got from my first shot. 4 hours spent cropping a washing machine out of the background of a bouquet shot, and I will NEVER make that mistake again!

I'd love to see them please.

Just the one for now from Clare and Matts wedding yesterday

Toby, as I said via PM, your photos from Kelly and James wedding are just amazing! You should be really proud

Kitten, can't wait to see the Pitches photos!

Beautiful Dee.

Toby · 07-08-2011, 17:02

Thanks Dee and that's a lovely shot - see I'd never think to try something like that!

So glad I managed to accompany Dee just before she takes a long break from all this but now I have a taste for it I need someone else to hitch a ride with - anyone?

You'd be welcome to join me but I've not taken any more wedding bookings yet, just baby shots. welcome when I do get some more weddings in the calendar though.

Toby · 07-08-2011, 18:25

Definitely interested Kitten, please let me know as and when
