Stunning. Think it deserved a better placement.

You make some of the most interesting bridal photos. Actually, you make some of the most interesting photos.

I'd probably prefer this in black and white or duotone just because that would make her blend in more, but still a wonderful tableau.

I like your idea and concept. I do wish it were cropped in closer to her. to me, in some ways she's...lost...or being swallowed up by the tree.

Ah, absolutely stunning. Where were you when I got married and ended up with boring and predictable photos? 10 all the way.

Very nicely poised portrait. The texture of the bark is incredible and I like the use of the fisheye.

I like the contrasting subjects. This has a fantasy feel to it as well.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS!!!!! The fact that shes wearing a gorgeous white wedding dress that stands out with the tree trunk is gorgeous. Also the background is nice and bright. And the warm colored flowers on her head and in her hand bring so much color contrast to this.

this has an amazing fairy tale quality to it ... like she's waiting for Prince Charming to come and sweep her onto his white stallion ... lovely processing ... 8

The image is gorgeous. Only nitpick, would like to see a little more detail on the bride her self, especially on her face and her torso area. It's a tad too soft in that area when compared to the the tree textures, which seem to have the bulk of the detail and compete for attention. I like this shot a lot and can easily say this will make the top10. Good luck! :)

I love the feel to the shot. Great composition. Love the soft focus and setup. Colors are brillant. I know wedding shots usually don't do that well, but I think this should be a top 10. Good luck.

I have been taking Trash-the-dress photos a lot lately. Great job working the tones in the bouquet in with the fallen leaves at her head. Very nice!

very well done, nice soft colors. had preferred to see more of the trees (and have the composition less centered)
  Photographer found comment helpful.

WOW - that is so beautiful. I like the softness but I'm wondering if I wouldn't have sharpened her head/face a bit. Still, so lovely and artful. 8
