Nothing says summer like heat, humidity and a chance of thunderstorms during an outdoor wedding... Here's a wedding we really loved shooting. I'd love any feedback, critiques or questions. Thanks!
One thing throws me off....is this a chronological account of the day? It seems like the early part of the day jumps around a bit, especially the groom shots.

It pretty much is. The only one I changed is the one putting his jacket on. Since it was so similar to the other shot earlier in the set I moved it down a bit. Thanks for noticing though... I noted that you noticed
I think the groomsmen shot threw me for a loop. it was like he was getting ready then that shot, then he went back to get ready again. Doesn't really matter because the whole set is awesomesauce.
Whoah! Curious, it looks like a 24TS on 27, 28? Is the same lens on 37. I really like those far away shots...so cool, it always interests me what you use, and you must take a hike to get so far away? Sorry for getting techy...any insight appreciated!

Infact, this is probably the strongest I've seen from you so far. I was trying to choose a favorite, but there are honestly too many. I hate you.
I'm really jealous at the fireworks shot. I was trying to do that this Sunday with the B&G, but they had to go and cut the cake when the fireworks were going off. As if that's more important.
I'm curious about 9B and 16 ... I'm surprised that your editor doesn't spend the 30 seconds taking care of the unflattering stuff in those two... especially since they're going to the blog. Is it just a matter of having made a decision that you aren't going to touch anything period, for any reason... or do you touch some stuff but those make it through the filter?
Tony, as a long time lurker and fan of your work, I have always found that your photography offers an almost perfect (if that is possible) balance between photojournalism and portraiture. This set is testament to that.
Your (and Amy's) work is fantastic.
I love 33 and the confidence it takes to choose that angle/ position, considering the importance of the shot.
One thing I would offer as a personal observation is that in your processing, skin tones, I always thought, tend to have a tad of harshness to them, although not in an offensive way. This is probably as a result from the crispness you look for in the overall image. This is coming from someone who until recently outsourced processing due to inability, so bags of salt are called for. For my personal education, I wondered if that is something you agree with, in which case personal style and preference prevail - or if this is "just me".
