Thanks, Clint and you are right I have to move my flash out of the camera, what about this one. I am trying the action hopefully they do't look too bad.

Nice images - that statue is growing out of her head in the 3rd photo, you'd need to move right or left for better composition.

photoshop work looks ok...but need some work on composition. you are getting the rule of 3rds ok, but like Allen said, watch for things "growing" out of your subjects heads.

That's a pretty good little drive from Houston to Port Arthur. What got you way down here?

First great concepts and ideas... pretty bride!!!

the first is a little dark,
the second one is NICE..like the action though..
the third I agree with the thing growing out of her head... and it could be just me but, I can't see some details in that dress!

the last one is nice... would like to see a little tighter crop...

please take my C & C for what it is worth (free) I have only done a couple of wedding in my time...

I didn't notice that was the church in Port Arthur, my wife has her office very close to there.

For the last one, a tighter crop (maybe make it a square image by cropping from the bottom) and a little more sharpening on the bride with a little blur on the background may help focus the image and make her stand out more. For a shot like this, next time you might get lower and shoot up more to get the tree line out from behind her head. A shorter depth of field would help her stand out more too.

I like that one much better. Lots of trees still in the background, but she's not lost in the concrete
