Wedding Series: Father of the Bride
Posted by Rags (Plano, United States) on 29 May 2008 in People & Portrait.
This is my humble attempt at taking images at a wedding. Your advise and expertise as well as comments are greatly appreciated.

It is a fine image and I must say the bride is a very lovely young woman.

I don't think the father could be any prouder of his beautiful young daughter. An excellent capture

i would say first off,use a lens hood to stop the glare.Try to keep the background dark it helps with the exposure of the brides dress.and have more than one camera,it saves time swapping lenses or filters.

It's a great image Rags - I like the lighting from the side. The sky is a little bit overexposed but the image still works really well, I would perhaps crop a bit of the top off to minimise the sky. Their expressions are awesome! I can't wait to see the rest of the series

Gorgeous! I am wondering if you ran a softening or a distort glow on the pic or if is from the natural light. Expressions convey the mood of the moment beautifully!

Humble huh? I'd say this attempt is absolutely awesome. Wonderful shot...You can feel the excitement of the bride and the love the father has for his daughter. Well captured friend. Also really like the blur effect you've used here.
