  • Everything is right about this one except for the sharpness. Looks like too slow of a shutter speed. But the reaction of the groom is great and the way it's framed is a step above the other similar ones.

  • Nice moment. Proximity to the subject and the framing allows viewers to feel like they are in the middle of the event. At the same time, the photographer might be more careful with how the edges are used, the wide-angle distortion and the spacing of each layer.

  • This photo does a nice job of capturing the couple leaving the church and guests showering them with flower petals. I like the basket coming into the frame, the petals hanging in the air and the expressions on the couple's faces.
