stuny Posted April 30, 2009 Share #2 Posted April 30, 2009 Brett - I like the dynamic feel of the tilt, as well as the framing and subtle color. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
roguewave Posted April 30, 2009 Share #3 Posted April 30, 2009 Lovely carriages & excellent OOF areas. The toning is cool as is the mood. Your work is always excellent & I learn from & admire your technique. This feels like an advertisement rather than an intimate wedding scene/portrait. I'm much older than you & the subject, so It's probably just my "old fashioned" sensibilities. I much enjoyed this image, as is always the case with your posts.

epand56 Posted April 30, 2009 Share #4 Posted April 30, 2009 Very nice picture. I agree with Stuart, the subtle colour add a lot to the B&W. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
india Posted April 30, 2009 Share #5 Posted April 30, 2009 what a beautiful wedding photo, to look back over the years a look at this image, just to find the vintage cars, the bride in a great posture, the paved stones in a form semi circle, with the hand creeping in the left side of the frame, in order to fullfill the image. IMHO a wedding photo to be proud! great photo david Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

farnz Posted April 30, 2009 Share #11 Posted April 30, 2009 Brett, Very pleasant tones but I particularly like the subtle narrative offered by the out of focus bouquet. Pete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thompsonkirk Posted May 1, 2009 Share #17 Posted May 1, 2009 A beautiful shot, & I especially appreciate the fact that the bride doesn't have an artificial smile, but is really the subject of a 'candid' shot. I've been thinking about Ben's astute comment above, & I think he's right about how weddings have changed so that a fine wedding shot looks a bit like an ad. I believe they've changed from personal & familial events into a kind of '15 minutes of fame.' I recently attended a wedding with a professional MC, as if the participants weren't bride & groom, but celebrities at a film award ceremony. Lots of cameras & video, as if life were being enacted for TV. Kirk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some weddings I would tend to try and avoid... However most of the weddings I attend are full of down to earth and warm friendly people. All they want is good and generally natural pictures so maybe advertising is replicating real life..! This bride has had her 15MB of unassumed fame on the Forum...
