I really like your compositions. I have to admit, I'm a little over the crunched black point being set high as a style choice today.
I agree... I feel myself starting to go back to the deep blacks again. For some images it works well, but with images with a lot of darks, it can make an image look 'dirty'.

I always assumed you had WAY more experience shooting weddings and portraits - I actually read this post twice to make sure I read correctly. 2 years? I'm impressed.
I really like your style - it has a seasoned polish and a fresh perspective. Keep up the great work!
Oh, and my favorites here are 8, 25, 30, 36 & 41
Thanks bud. Yeah, this is my second year shooting professionally (started getting paid in September 2010). I just shot my 50th wedding this past weekend (my feet hurt). Thanks for the props... I couldn't have gotten as far as I have today without the help of FMers.

Nice! You guys know what you're doing with the strobes :-) especially the ones that are shot at night - very well lit.
Do you care to comment on your strobe set up?

Excellent shots. I really like the PP. Would you provide any tips on how to achieve similiar processing??
Thanks! Well - I started off with VSCO presets and made them my own with some tweaks. I'm still not 100% happy with them but one day I'll get there. I find editing a lot like the way I cook... I "adjust to taste".

I had two speedlights set up (600EX-RT) and using on camera flash for fill. I moved the 2 off camera flashes around throughout the night. It was a little more challenging since there was no ceiling (outdoor reception) so there wasn't much to bounce off.
