I recently took Wedding photos for a friend's daughter. I really liked this portrait of her.

This is nice. Really well taken and well processed. i like the soft glow at the edges of her body. nice idea.

Excellent post processing skills here. Plus, the angle of the shot is real nice. It could've been better if the bride is smiling though to reflect her happiness on her wedding day.

beautiful portrait,the subdued light on the bride was so soft that it looks to be a plaster model with smoothly skin,the expression in the eyes of the bride was subtle and commemorative for the past i supposed, very pure work,Stephen,
well-done,
xu

Good morning Stepehen. This is just as beautifull as the other photo of her that i have seen. It is beautifull. Her pose and the look int her eyes is great. She looks innocent. Really good work Stepehen. Hope are are doing well :)

Beautiful. I love how the straps to her gown are distinct in the soft focus portrait. I also like the pensive expression. All around good portrait...:O)

Wonderful is the word I may use for this portrait. Not looking into the camera, but a pose by the window, this is just wonderful with the light and softness. Very nice work from you, Stephen!

Softness of the photo and the expression of the model are wonderful...

Very nice portrait of this bride. I like the way that she is looking out of the window, and the soft focus is wonderful.

stephen, i really like the glow you created. and her facial expression is nice. the only thing i'm having trouble with is how far up she has her eyes turned...i can't see any color...but it's a beautiful photo so i can get over it :)

Very nicely done Stephen. The way the light works in the shot is incredible!

Very nice work Stephen, I like the soft look of the bride and the bright light in front of her gives the shot a magical feeling.

Now this is a very good shot Stephen!
The glow around her really makes this picture what it is. I love the thoughtful stare she has on her face. Although she will be happy, I am sure some reflections of past and future will occurr to her mind now and then... Well done, she must be very happy with it!
