Beautiful shots. I agree with you about #5 being a great shot but #3 is right up there with it. A set to be proud of for sure.

These are keepers. I'm sure the whole family will be happy to have copies of this series for a keepsake of this time. I hope you'll share wedding pictures at some point.

I recently did my first wedding, it was outdoors. The actual ceremony was in a shelter, so I had to use the flash. It was very difficult as there was outdoor and indoor light at the same time. I did some shots at the end outside the shelter, but they were not as sharp or well lit as yours. Any tips you can give? I had settled on a 55mm f1.4 prime lens for the shoot, which gave me depth of field problems. I also struggled with having a slow shutter speed to get the background but which allowed motion blur on people and possible blur from my camera movement. When I did the outside shots I didn't have time to shift gears much as people moved around and didn't really pose much, so I had trouble their too with focus and lighting. As I study your shots I say to myself you must have had a tripod, controlled off camera lights, and subjects who took time to pose still, n'est-ce pas? What kind of camera and lens did you use?

Thank you all for the nice compliments. I know some of them had some mistakes but I was pleased with the overall results and the couple was very pleased. :)

George, I am almost embarrassed to tell you my set up for most of these shots but it was an ancient (by today's standards) Canon T1i. The majority of the shots were with a 17-55mm kit lens. I did use my Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 on a few shots. Where the natural light wasn't what I needed I used an off camera flash with a portable soft box or just put the flash on the camera on a few (I know that is not the "right" way for most people) but I often like those results. And every one was hand held simply because I was rushing to get to the shoot on time and didn't check my packing list so I forgot to pack my tripod, mea culpa! Oh and most of the set was shot in AV mode, although I did do a few (very few) in Tv and manual.
