All 8 of these are absolutely brilliant, I think.

The way they manage to contrast the sincerity of the occasion + the outfits with the playful nature and intimate, close up camera positions really makes it unusual, but great... So much better than the typical wedding photos you see which seem to have not evolved from 19th century photography standards.

Thy all came out brilliantly, too, despite it not looking like a particularly sunny day...

Yeah, if I was getting married I'd definitely give you a ring... Don't hold your breath or anything, though, Im not expecting anything soon!!!

This one photo works particularly well, something to do with a balance of composition - althoough its off centre in terms of angle and inclination, if you wer to draw lines between theire respective body positions, the'd all go into one point, along with the bottom of the fence, a clever trick of perspective...

Er, I'm not sure if that sentence made sense at all... It certainly didn't come out like I was expecting.. from a mathematical sense, in my head, it works, anyway...

Is it our duty to die for governments & for gods?
Is it our privilege to slave for market & for industry?
Is it our right to follow laws, set to scare and to oppress?
Is it our gift to stay in line and will it take away the blame?

i really like how untraditional these are. (and the birds eye view of the couple. LOVE IT!) very unique and capture all the right emotions. i like this shot because the playfullness contradicts with the attire and situation so much. and the composition that sodium-pentathol mentioned as well. good job! love these photos.
