Last Dance

It was way past midnight and they were so tired, yet so content that it was simply bliss.

White balance is the first thing that stands out to me. This photo could probably have the WB fixed quickly with a graduated filter. There's a lot of emotion in their faces, and I think a tighter crop on the couple rather than full-body would help emphasizing them. If you had wanted to go for the tighter crop when shooting, I think a lower angle to get more of that wall pattern behind them would also make an improvement. i'm not trying to give you a list of things wrong, I'm just giving you things to think about for next time to get those 3+ star shots.

Thanks, as a teacher I really appreciate teaching feedback =) . The truth is I had no extra photography lighting and I have a very basic DSLR that doesn't do well in high ISOs. If I crop, the result would be noise and poor quality. As for the wall - I literally cropped in to the top of it - that's as high as it goes, after that there was the exit sign and the door in the background. This is not professionally done for a job (I took it at a friend's wedding), but I wanted to get some feedback from the community, so thanks for the ideas =)
