That's a very clean shot, I like it. Was it just natural light or a touch of flash?
This is my favourite shot, though to be fair I've only been to one wedding with my camera!

Nice shot, loving the lights in the background.. Mine was with 2 off camera speed lights with 2 portable softboxes, and i think we had a reflector in there somewhere, took a little while to set up, but it was really worth it.
 
hmmm..... ok, after some deliberation, probably this one. I don't claim it's technically perfect, but the whole day was amazing and fun and laughter filled and when it's rounded off with a first dance in the local village hall that gets photos like this, I am not sure technical brilliance is the be all and end all!

More pics from the day to give some context are on my BLOG if anyone is interested ;)

Nice pic, love these natural pics, you can really tell they are having a good time..
 
Mmmm... not done any weddings for a while, so not going to go through a load of hard drives. But on my photobucket I've found this which was always a fave.

And this was a fake bride at an SWPP forum meet:

This photo is not technically good or some work of art but I like it because the father of the bride is crying and he puts his hand on his mums shoulder as he passes for his support.

I like this one and I totally understand that - I shoot dancing a lot and that's part of why I enjoy it - you capture people having so much fun! Loved the vintage theme of the wedding and the bridesmaids dresses. At a regular dance event I go to they have a swing dance session and loads of the girls come in Vivian of Holloway dresses - they look fab, but I never have my camera as too busy dancing myself! I see the bride changed into dance shoes for the first dance. :)

So a favourite wedding photo is often going to be about the emotion it captures, as much as if not more than the technical excellence of the image.

For me, this still takes a bit of beating,

Some really great photos, really enjoying looking at them, loving the natural shots.. Looks like I may have started something here. Hopefully people will keep posting pics, and we will have a thread of great photos..

There's some cracking photos on this thread... love the emotional ones to.

I have another emotional photo I will have to go and rake out
 
Away from the emotional ones, this is rather a cheesy one, but I like it because you can rotate it any which way...

The Groom and Groom's men:

The Kray style pic (?)

The 2nd shooter with a Nikon Pic...(Rejected obviously!)...

Thanks John, the rugby-scrum shot is a great fave with lots of families too.

Chriswallace1. My 2nd shooter always provided bad photographs, he was more of a friend for company than a 2nd shooter, just unfortunate he used Nikon. :puke: (Unfortunate for Nikon I should add!).

Ive certainly been there before, I have had the worse second shooters in the past, some simply horrid pics! I am blessed now to have the best 2nd shooter ever, gonna hang onto her with both hands!

Oh and Nikon ! Booooo hissssssss
 
In film days I used a Nikon F4 and F100...Beautiful! When I changed to Digital I ended up with a D100 and a Fuji S2 pro...Crap. I changed to Canon when the 20D was released. :love:
Nowadays whatever you have are great. (y)

As for 2nd shooters, Ryan Jarvis helped me on one wedding, obviosly his pics were great and sadly better than mine. :(

I know I've been a crap 2nd shooter for some pros I've helped too! :puke:

This one. I was in my final year at Richmond College and was invited to a wedding in Germany by my pen friend (on the right).

Just a wonderful day and I was the main photographer - no pressure :)

Had to wait till i got back to the UK to get the film developed....
 
I dunno, so hard to choose ! I am not even sure these are my absolute favourites...they are just off my head and actually on my desktop atm, hence the random logo designs...

All from one in June.
 
Every time i look through wedding shots i've done i have a different favourite, and i have favourites for different reasons. Someone on the previous page mentioned tecnical prowess in weddings shots - always got to come second to emotional involvement in my eyes!


love one on the previous page with the lampshade and it casting shadows, amazing. shame it wasn't a real wedding, next time don't mention it haha.

a few of mine, for different reasons (hope you don't mind me posting more than one!)

this last one is actually a tongue-in-cheek version of my favourite ever wedding photograph by Yervant, which is beyond stunning.

That first one is one of the best if not the best wedding alter shot I've ever seen!

The others are amazing too!
