This image really created the theme for my clients wedding a few weeks ago. She took the element of the peacock feather and incorporated it throughout her wedding from the ceremony to the cake. T'was awesome!

Nice; thanks for sharing!
Just fyi, you can upload images up to 2MB so don't be afraid share your larger .jpgs.

Thomas,
First thanks for sharing, it is good knowing up front that the feather was a theme as otherwise would have been odd for a bridal shot. Your bride here is beautiful and she is an excellent model. Your choice of focusing sweet spot is spot on. My only comment for critique here is lighting, the harsh shadow on her right shoulder detracts from the image a bit. I understand this maybe a limitation of a shooting wedding with on camera flash, but a bounce option or softer lighting alternative would have worked better here.

Thanks Michael, I had the full sized jpeg on my external, which wasn't on me, so I had to rip this off of my facebook page.

Thanks for the critique, William! I really appreciate another perspective and gives me things to work on.

Neat photo and cool idea of the peacock feather for her wedding!
