What a lovely set! You had some amazing light, and you used it to perfection. Great interactions between them, too. Were they naturally that way, or did you have to direct them a bit?

Very nice! The girl is cute!
Agreed on that. Also, for some reason I like the photos way more when her eyes are open. It caught me most for 8, 9 and 10...especially 8. If their eyes met and were visible, that shot would be my favorite, cause I like the framing. 3 is an example where her eyes really make the shot, you can feel the emotion. But that's more a critique of them (and maybe the sun?) rather than you.
Really nice set, the colors are great and the b+w shots are really nice

I don't mind so much looking at her face but my crit was going to be along these lines. There are maybe half a dozen shots where it is almost completely the back of his head. #10 jumps out at me as a shot that I would love to see them at least facing each other to get both of their profiles instead of the complete back of his head. That's just my .02! Great set overall.
Me .... not really feeling this set out side of #1 and maybe another ...#3 #15/17.
why....
The guy is basically in the same pose an we are just observing him in different angles.
She show or at least is captured in different poses and some personality
Plus the set does not show much in creativity. lean against building, sit in grass, etc
#6 & #11 feel like poor composition.
Tilt is thrown-in just .... well because.
To answer a few questions; the groom had a severe head cold, and was barely hanging on. And so what you see was pretty much what he was offering, and I was happy he was being a trooper! I created situations and directed here and there with an assistant, the couple was obviously very awesome. No flash or reflectors. Overcast sky. They brought the motorcycle gear, but not the bike. I flipped #12 because I wanted a cascade into the barn scene. #3 is just a different perspective with her shoes off.
Processing was very little, basic color correction, some of this was shot in jpeg.
