Level the horizon and try a little fill flash, it will add the "pop" that is needed here.

I knew the horizon was off on the first one. Thought the second one was ok.

If you have Photoshop (highly recomended by the way) or similar program where you can drag guide lines into the picture that is a quick way to determine horizons when you are not sure if they are level.

#1 - Very pretty young lady, you did a great job getting her to relax in front of the camera. The horizon is a little tilted but that's an easy fix. You also cropped off her shoulder and a little part of her elbow. Her skin tone is also a little to cool, just warm up the skin tones and you have a great picture.
#2 - The horizon is slightly titled, but the bigger issue with the horizon is it is cutting right thru the middle of his head, coming out almost at eye level. A change in camera position would have corrected this. I also would have had him turn his head either more toward to your further away, this position is leaving his far eye either to much in the image or not enough (for my liking others might disagree). He looks like he is having a great time, the focus is sharp, your b/w conversation is nicely done.
Good job!!!!

What MWAC said but I'd like to add that #1 is VERY soft on focus. #2 in better on focus, but a little soft. I'm not sure why #1 is so blue looking, I'm not sure if it's WB or something else. It almost looks like a blue haze in the air though. I'm sure it's just a simple WB adjustment

I did a quick correction on #1, but won't post unless you give me the OK. I'll be gone for awhile, but will check back later.

Picture #1
Funny looking sky.
Boat in water were water meets the shy.
Bulb flash in her left eye.
White band where wedding band should be.
Small line on left side below railing.
Little flash on silver design of her dress.
The wind blowing her hair would have been nice to see. You chopped her a bit to much.
#2
Fellow looks happy, but why is he happy?
Thank you for posting and good work.

I would have had her more centered or more on the left whith her whole upper body like that in the photo but also showing more of the hair blowing like that.
