Funny, goofy picture. Everyone had to be ready, especially photographer. Nice use of color and sense of humor to this photo. Nice use of humor and action to make a boring group shot fun. Great facial expressions on the wedding

Nice, thin black and white with bodies positions nicely. Unpredictable wedding party photo. Very good attempt at a different type group portrait. It would have been more effective if the people and the background were spaced better. Unusual and well executed idea. I love the symmetry of this photo. It looks like it could be an albulm cover if they were musicians! Striking composition, unusual pose.

Seems like an iconic wedding photo waiting for the wedding or reception to begin. This is a wonderful spontaneous image. It is not the typical portrait and it is full of humor.

Nice use of the light and situation. Very nice. Photographer captured backs of bridesmaids for nice moment.

More traditional in its approach but still very clean, sophisticated image. A great use of the setting for a group portrait that is a feast for the eyes.

A candid moment, funny and light, that shows a group without being stiff and boring.

Well done with a little fun included. Having the bride held up in the air was a good idea.
