So I shot my first wedding in years this past weekend and wanted to slap up a few of my fav. shots which retain some anonymity for those involved. Here are some of my favs.

It feels awesome to be back in my element - expressing my creativity through photography.

These are some really cool photos. I like the one of the shoes and handbag the best... very elegant.

wow. stunning.
I really like that black and white pic.
I just might ask you to do my wedding photos...which will be awhile, seeing as I'm not even engaged yet... :P

Those are really pretty. The first two are my favorite.

The last two are nice - especially the backlit shot. What's with all the sloping angles?

Ty all

The sloping angles are pin-cushion distortion from shooting at 16mm (used a 16-35mm f2.8 L lens) - they are pre-process pictures (except the false B&W which is just total desaturation as a test) .. of which the distorted ones will be passed through DXO to correct perspective.
I am generally a snob for details like that - but I -may- end up using the original photo because the inverted pin-cushion effect draws the eye in, sort of encouraging a top-to-bottom scanning of the image. We shall see

All images were taken with my 5DmkII which I -highly- recommend to anyone considering the purchase of a new dSLR.

Wow

Very nice.

Certainly puts my ability in perspective as in I have an awful lot to learn.
