Seems like you did pretty well, except pictures 2, 3 & 4 drive me crazy with the crucifix growing out of the bride's head (and the same for the "kiss" shot, #5) :-( I think that's a really major, major booboo, sorry. I don't want to rain on your parade or anything, but I felt compelled to comment to that issue...

Personally, I won't bother looking at photos with the pre-excuse of being really botched by an uploader. Why not zip them up and upload them to your portfolio? I'd be much more likely to look at photos without a pre-excuse. :-)

Images 1800 and 1863 are too dark, but not dark enough to be a silhouettes, i recommend brightening them up. While you're at it, add a little more brightness and contrast to 1891

these are fresh from the camera the day after the weddin, i shot in RAW so il take it all in and work with it, thanks all you guys... also, the cropping comments... im compensating for the 4:5 8x10 crop ratio, maybe i did it wrong but i know i takes about an inch or two off the top/bottom of the image

Buddy, you're lucky to get any comments on your images. So don't get uppity.

Robert,

They must have had a lot of trust in you to have a 17 yr. old take their wedding shots :) Congrats on surviving the first one and I hope you get some great referrals and some nice shots for your portfolio.

Judy

Edit to add: Do you have any of the actual ceremony? The church ones appeared to be staged either before or after the ceremony.
