Hey all! Haven't shared in a while. Katie and I shot this one in Baltimore on Saturday and were pretty pleased with the results.

Would love to hear your thoughts!

Stuff like 6, 8, 31 35 and 36 is classic you. So good.

39 is impressive for many reasons.

What the hell is going on with 42? lol

Great job! Love the expressions.

Question, how do you guys have them up and edited so fast? Do you edit the whole job first or just your favorite. I'm thinking of posting blogs right away, as opposed to waiting until I'm done editing the whole job. Hoping it can be more affective with marketing my work. Any feedback is highly appreciated!

Awesome as always. I will say, I'd love to see a bit more time + tweaking put into your color presets. You have your black and white so dialed in that it makes the color come across as a bit weak.

I've tried to blog ASAP a few times and have almost always regretted it. Sometimes I'll miss images that could be awesome but down't catch my eye on first pass. Sometimes I'll notice that some images were sloppily edited. Typos, lack of tags, etc...

However, I now ALWAYS post at least one photo on Instagram/facebook as soon as I get home, and a few more throughout the weekend. I also try to edit 15-30 the night of/next day to send to various vendors for them to share as well. Seems to be much appreciated and get better results than blogging anyway.

Your clients should be well pleased. The composition and lighting in 10, 15-B and 28 is top notch. Also really like 32-A with the way the lady's pose mimics the framed painting.

Dude, I think I mentioned it everywhere I could. These are so good. Like really REALLY good.

I figured I'd put down some of my thoughts, not that you should care

Any # I didn't mention is "very good"

1. nice. I really wish there was something more interesting on the left side of the frame.

4 wonderful composition. clean and nothing extra.

6. love the moment, not much going on on the left side, and the title seems a bit sloppy.

8. great expressions all around.

9. Love the hand placement of the foreground girl.

10. so good.

12. hmmmm, he’s not sure where to look and she is checking out his flowers…

13. so very good.love the differing element on each side (and how they match, the grooms side is black and white and geometric, her’s is flowery and colorful)

14. I’m with Doug. blur looks blurry

15b. so so good. love the warmth of color and emotion.

16-20. love all the compositions, I think 21 is extra.

24. clean and simple. but love all the separate elements.

25. doesn’t look as “polished” as the others, not sure why.

27. great emotion.

30. love all the expressions.

31. love his expression, but nothing interesting is going on in the rest…

32. both are lovely compositions.

36. good capture.

42. no clue what is going on, but I love it.

51. really good. good planning.

I like the more dramatic contrast in this set's post work. Seems a little different than your past work.

Knock it off, Francis. As if you've never had flat lighting.




Chuck, you and Katie should do this for a living.

You guys always inspire. Thanks so much for sharing.

What I think when I see these photos (I hope it helps me to clearly articulate my own thoughts):

Some of the faces are very dark in some reception/etc. photos for my eyes, but I'm more of a practical rather than artistic person it seems, so I would tend to lighten things to a medium level rather than leave the appearance of darkness that creates a specific mood. I also see some very low-key images, maybe more in the early part.

The candid ones seem to tell stories or convey personalities. I already know you know how to frame the elements to tell stories. The ceremony colors seem very consistent, the reception colors are consistent but IMO very saturated and contrasty. The reception lighting seems to be heavily mixed and alternating in lighting styles, some with OCF, some with on-camera/etc. fill flash, some with more direct flash, and some ambient.

IMO the light in #50 is way too intense.

The first photo presented in the set creates a color standard that isn't followed by anything else in the set (dark aqua/green wall, saturation is not as strong as other photos, maybe because green is recessive). The main colors for the rest of the set are oranges and pinks with a few bright blues from reception lights.

4, 10, 14, 16, 38 and 44 are my favorites. They connect more strongly with me.

A lot of these make me think they were shot between 28-58mm. Were they? I'm currently feeling the inclination to avoid things wider than ~35mm for most general purposes where people are gathered everywhere, since the perspective distortion along the edges is really bad.

I'm running into the old problem I used to have and notice when using a 24-70, in that I am sacrificing end aesthetics just to squeeze the shot in with wide angles that distort people on edges. I have to force myself to stay with 35mm at the widest for those things.

And of course I can't see stories like you do, so I have no room to critique your stuff anyway. But it's part of how I try to get better even as I slide ever downward in my skill level.

Many thanks all!

PhotoDH. Katie is really good at just pulling some of her favorites. I also 'know' which ones were good so I'll tell her 'look for the series by the couch, there's a good frame in there', etc etc. She gets them up on the blog most times the next day.

Zalmy and Joey, thanks for the detailed response! Joey, dont put yourself down man, I appreicate your thoughts!

Also, Katie added a bunch more to our set and we made it a 'featured' wedding of ours. Here is the link if you are so inclined!
