Obviously, this is a wedding that i have done recently. i enjoyed the planning, the shoot, the download, the review (although definitely the moment of truth when you get home with someone's wedding photos), the processing and the result. It actually made me register my business name this week - Studio LUMIERE is now officially a legal entity :)
Anyway, processing included sharpening, crop, some gaussian blur, vignette added, high pass, and channel mixer. I treated the eyes as per the DPC Tutorial "Model Makeover" by Brad. Looking forward to some feedback :)

Nice to see you and Matt back! This is a lovely portrait. I'm not a portrait photographer, but to the untrained eye (namely mine) this is very well done. I like the pose, the lighting works perfectly, they both look warm and natural, and the processing doesn't look like "processing" - it fits the mood and the couple very well. The eyes in particular look very natural, very real - you did a great job not overdoing them but bringing them out just enough. I'm betting they're very delighted with the results!
I really like your treatment of this image. The warmth and vintage-y glow works very nicely here. It looks like the groom is a little soft. I would have asked him to lean forward and into his bride, bringing them together on the focal plane and making them more connected in the image. He looks a little like he's pulling away. 6 from me.
