A friend asked me if i'd shoot their wedding last Friday.
I liked the idea of a challenge and accepted on the grounds that no money exchanged hands. It was a good learning experience for me and the happy couple seem to like their photos too.

Some of these shots I love and some I'm not so keen on! The one of the three people walking away is a corker! Wedding photography is not easy and I take my hat off to you.

I love the black and white guy with cigar shot. OTOH the colour popping shots .... Noooooooooo

the black voice bubbles is interesting but should have been held up so they were pointing towards the mouths IMO

Agreed it's not easy

Good points and taken on board. So many shots to do on the day and it was an educating experience.
The couple actually asked for the colour popping processing though.
