Your Canyon de Chelly capture is my favorite, all are excellent.
Tack sharp, excellent detail, superb contrast, nice composition = great shot!
Great shot - thanks for sharing about using balloons to cover lights to get yellow glow. And the bear encounter, maybe he or she was just making sure you had everything set up correctly, adds greatly to how you got this shot. Well done.
You did good for 1st attempt. Only critique is I would recommend cropping the bottom part of photo to eliminate the center rock and the rock in the right corner. You don't need them and they just pull one's eye away from the main subject which is the waterfall
Nice - great sky and good foreground detail - so you hit trifecta - foreground, middle ground and background. Like doing B&W of subjects usually seen in color. Was just there for 7 days in May '18.
Wish I made those kinds of mistakes. Excellent!
B&W for sure - high impact
Thanks for bring that to my attention. Will not do so in the future.

Just got back from Yellowstone where I attended a 6 day photography symposium and then went to Jackson Hole, WY for 2 days. Second time there - one of my favorite places. If you go to Jackson, recommend Persephony (or ie) Bakery just off the town square. Excellent breakfast, pastries, coffee and tea. Nice weathe sit on the deck. In West Yellowstone, try The Three Bears, the Hungry Otter and Bullwinkes for good eats. Have fun.

Damn nice “Tourist” Photos.
Have been there. Beautiful capture.
Good shots and will be better after PP. What lens did you take? It is recommended that photogs use wide angle 14-14mm or 15-30mm. I've taken photographer tour and paying the extra fee was worth it as they stop crowds, tell you what to settings to use and place you where you can get best shots. The Navajo guides even assisted when I had a camera error - saved the day so to speak. Yes, a bit rushed, but they gotta get you in and out to make the $$$. Like #1 & #3. You did good
Love the B&W images - add to the architecture. Excellent!
#2 as a photo, however you really turned it into something wonderful with #3. Would make great promotional photo.
Trust your instinct. Having not shot wedding before, this is NOT the time to start especially at your daughter's wedding. Hire a professional and let them do their job. Take photos if you must. But you should enjoy the event and the day. Besides, if you are the photographer then you won't be in any of the photos - no father & daughter shots etc. unless someone else is taking photo. Gently decline since this is your daughter, but be firm. And enjoy being Father of the Bride.
