Recently I covered the wedding for a friend couple and what I loved is their photo shoot session and later on I tried to color grade vividly using lightroom. Kindly let me know where to improve my craft
hello brother, couple things, the foreground in the 1st kills the photo. Maybe if you were on the same level as the bride and groom and down low with the church symetrecially in back of them. probably need as least a 35mm on full frame. the outdoor shots are all backlight and kinda far to see the faces. i know how it is working in bright sun, thats when you need a good flash in direct sun, or try and find open shade. dancing photo, no face and awkward body angle on the bride, the shots that are position 3, facing away from the camera has too much foreground greenery in the frame. distracting. foreground items work best with light colors and when either you or the subjects are closer to the greenery or foreground item. on shot 7, turn off the flash or use subtle off camera flash. it makes these type of photos too flat with direct flash. the last shot is almost perfect!! a touch more fill in the faces, could be my monitior also lol, but its a pretty photo, spacing and position is great, 2 ladies with shoulders behind the others adds depth and dimension. hopefully you got some with them looking at each other . thanks,

Thanks for the insight -
I wont comment on composition but say that the images need a lot of help with editing.
Kindly give your two cents on composition too--would love to learn more plus what you have shared about edits.
