A very lovely bride I must say! Something about this shot doesn't look right though. She looks a little plastic, almost like a manequine. Did you use Neat Image on this? The detail in the veil is also just not there...

Comment by Kavey:
I really like the base image itself - the pose, , the rotation, the way the walls form such a strong compositional framing, the texture and play of light on the dress, the expression on her face - but the colour (lighting? post processing?) doesn't appeal - I don't like the blue highlights in her hair nor the green tinge to the shadows on her dress.

From the angle of her head I get the impression that there might have been just a LITTLE too much picture-taking going on :)

Good exposure; I like the effect of the veil blending into the background.

great composition, but the editing looks a bit off. I can see some blue streaks in her hair

Comment by indianzfan:
OK photo but the model has a weird blank look on her face. She should be smiling.

This is a good example of how to do a portrait. Nice soft lighting and the model seems fairly relaxed. Good job.

Very lovely setting and rich colors on dress and wall. I would have liked to see a little light reflected on right hand side of face, neck, chest, and arm. The shadows are just slightly to strong for my taste. A 9.

beautiful image spoiled by the strange blue coloring in her hair and the strange eye, a pity.

Lighting and color are really excellent! I love the high-key tonality. Your model's neutral expression and almost vacant gaze makes her to look like a Barbie doll.
