    Good Ones!

    I'd say you have a calling there miss... ;)
    These are good Nat.
    They show the couple well and are very playful.
    I did the wedding announcment photo for the same friends I did the wedding for too.
    They were just a portrait, like the first one.
    Good Luck with the wedding!

    Nice work - like the second one a lot, it's different. Great quote, too - heard this before somewhere?

    I really like the last one. Neat idea.

    Are they planning parkas for at the wedding?

    These are great Nat. That last shot especially. I like that you have the foreground in sharp focus rather than the more obvious focussing on the couple that a lot of us would do. Of course you planned the little heart shape of bright background that shows up between their upper chest/neck area.

    You've found another thing you are really good at. I hope the photog from hell that showed up at you first wedding job stays home for this one.
