I went as the second shooter, I had a great experience. I learned a lot about how things are done in weddings. Every culture has their own traditions, and sometimes those traditions can last as long as 3 days! While shooting the wedding, I felt I needed to learn about tradition in other cultures. The best thing at the end of the night, besides getting to go home and sleep, was he hired me to work at his studio. Score!
Looks like UOP. Technically it looks great, you bounce flash well and exposure/processing is clean. I'd say just a little too safe with the crops, composition and posing.

+1, you did a great job! The crops / composition were safe but are just fine . . . great thing about being second shooter is being able to branch out creatively, so maybe next time mix things up!
great shots, the only thing i would comment on is that if you are going to second shoot, get quite different angles from the main guy as otherwise you get the couple looking at the main and it looks odd in your images.
I agree with everything that was said above, but just wanted to congratulate you on getting a job in the studio! Glad to see you're eager to learn formally. Mad respect for that!
You're gonna learn even more working at the studio... good for you! A lot of 2nd shooters I know have no interest in the business side... just the cash!
