I love them, more to the point I bet the couple did too.

Excellent shots, especially 3 and 4, with 1 a favourite too.
Best wishes, Kris.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Really good although I do think number 2 is a bit contrived but I enjoy what you have done with the tree in the first and last.

We must avoid however, snapping away, shooting quickly and without thought, overloading ourselves with unnecessary images that clutter our memory and diminish the clarity of the whole. - Henri Cartier-Bresson -

Weddings are difficult to photograph well, without making them erm, well look like wedding photos. This is a refreshing take on the subject, particularly like #3 & #5

I like them all bar number 2 which looks a little staged but thats just a personal opinion - they are all technically very good

I really like them all, but particularly number 4, it looks like she is leaving her old life behind and being led into her new one.
We they used to having thei pictures taken?
Great.

Beautiful! I love number 1 especially, and also 4 with its convincing narrative and nice light.
Definitely very 'editorial'. You could imagine them in a magazine but they are very staged, the idea of which I struggle with on a genuine wedding shoot, as a great wedding day would not really give a photographer any time for such careful compositions and artistic license and would the couple really want their photographic memories to be so contrived?
I'm not being harsh, they are first-class pictures, I'm just thinking out loud about the real-world use for this style.
