Hello! I see some potential in the image of a bride hugging her mother [?] emotionally. I like the couple shot where they are illuminated well. Those two images were prominent. I would never post an image of a flower girl with a half opened eye, personally.

I suggest:

1. Read books, I read a lot &

2. I don’t post everything. Sleep on your posts, try to choose very carefully.

3. Look at magazines. Recreate what you see on magazines and

4. Take courses.

5. Have a group of photographers even to come to for advice… Or follow big shot photographers to read their blog posts or tweets…. there is a lot you can do to improve. I give myself homework all the time.

6. *Learn to see everything objectively is mainly the best advice I can give you. I have people whom I ask what they deem worthy of a post or a share…. Let me know what you think, & let me know if you’ve tried any of this… 🙂

7. Also stay positive, I’ve been criticized before. 🙂
