    I think you want to look your very best for a wedding, in a manner that appeals to all to be able to attract a new customer. You want to be approachable by all. If you get paid a big chunk of cash for a wedding you want to dress the part. Unless you do itΒ  for free. I’ve been a 2nd shooter & never have i asked if I can wear my mother’s favorite pair of old jeans to the shoot… Maybe it’s not entirely the same but I personally would dress totally different than who I am. I dress like I’m about to go on a boat, but for weddings I dress well head to toe. I have my hair done, makeup, and I wear dressy flat shoes.

    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… πŸ™‚

    7. Also stay positive, I’ve been criticized before. πŸ™‚
