k good.

Cheers man, site will come in handy!

Um.. RE: the shot.

I think front on would of worked much better, with more action getting out. Don't put her in a static pose, get her to move, that way it isn't so frigid and looks more natural. Shoot the frame 5-10 times over until its right.

The bars running through her are a bit of a put off mmm and I don't like the skin retouching. It looks like a filter was slapped over it. What filters do is that it will blend all her face structure into one coloured blob, plus it loses texture on the face. You really need to learn how to airbrush and create face structure. ie. Cheek bones, darkening under the neck etc etc

The exposure looks really clean bro, well done, but the lighting isn't dynamic enough, it's too consistant with the background?

Sorry if this sounds harsh or too negative, but you are doing awesome lately, you just need to do a lot more visual research on other photographer's composition and lighting, even finesse needs attention. Whenever you shoot, make a story out of it, an image should tell story of the subject, no matter what what or who the subject is. Stay away from forums man, I've found that the skill level on forums is very mediocre at best (even though sometimes it looks "awesome" )

This. look at the place where lithfkn works at. I've improved 10 times more from there than from any other place/

Nice, lately I've been a lot more interested in pictures of people than of what I used to do..

I'm not sure about the sunglasses though, because it's such an emotional message you're trying to show and yet he is trying to look cool with his shades.. which makes it less convincing. It's less touching and it doesn't catch your eye as much as when you can see the eyes clearly. Still great photos though

not too fond of your bw conversion. Looks a little bland, and my eyes get lost within the image. lovely exposure though.

Needs a crop + some blurring on the bride, my attention should be drawn instantly on the hands but my eyes go wandering around in the pic looking for something.

vignette it is! Ugh, the split toning in this...

Trying to emulate that bastard's colours(you know who i'm talking about).
