Just one quick one that stood out to me...

Just going through putting the finishing touches on Kassie and Michael's wedding.

Loved this shot as I was going through them all. Although I am not 100% sure about her hair in the wind... part of me loves it, part of me thinks it needs the chop.

Love the hair in the breeze. Maybe 20 years from now, when they reminisce over their wedding day, they can recall how breezy it was. In my unprofessional opinion, sometimes little touches like these can bring out emotion later in life.

Also love the hair

You have captured her shape beautifully.

Thanks Lawrence, technically I probably should have somehow made her bend her right arm to accentuate the gap between her arm and her waist, but I thought she looked wonderfully relaxed and comfortable - sometimes technically isn't always better...

Technical be damned. Their happiness shines thru and you have captured what may very well be one the best moments of their life. Excellent photo

I agree wholeheartedly. I would also put this shot in my top 5 @kevy73 portrait shots of all time.:encouragement: (yes, I'm keeping score):)

Lovely shot! And not all technically correct photos tell a story. This one tells a beautiful story. And thats what counts!!

Thanks for all the kind comments. For those who are interested - this is the before / after and what I have done to it. I try not to do too much to any of my images - the biggest change is the VSCO preset on import. But to this one I also did add a radial filter, just to brighten up their faces and remove some of the shadow caused by their heads being so close together. Could have done this in situ with a reflector or flash, but it was / had been raining so was running with minimal gear.
