Thanks for the comment. I'm sorry that it disturbs u, but i think such a composition is quite common i thought. Even half faces compositions are shown in this subforum as well. But anyway, thanks again. This picture was taken and shown to the client straight after and they liked it.

I find the angle ok. Not disturbing at all. Wedding photography is suppose to be creative right? Not everything have to be smack in the middle.
Anyway, everyone has their own taste of pictures. Haha..

maybe if her eyes are shown fully, it will be nicer (instead of being cutted half way).. her expression might have more impact then... IMO...

hello! Thanks for the kind words and i've dropped u an email regarding our wedding day charges already! I do agree it would be nicer if it'd be nicer if cropped more to the right. The reason why i didn't do any photoshop to the face is because some clients might get offended.

so we'll leave it as it is until the client requests for some pore/pimple removal! Heh..

Hahhaa, I didnt think of them being offended,
Thanks for the email, (bookmarked your site already)..

I have some tips for you rdging 2nd shoot. Because of the whiteness of veils and gowns, alot of times they are overexposed and hence no details. What could be done is.. brushing a layer of black over it, and setting the black to overlay.. lower the opacity to say.. 20%? Normally more details can be seen..
no offend, its just what i would had done to have more details in the photo... then again, maybe its a old trick that everyone here knows.. >.<!

no offend!
