A non-conformist to the end! This is another picture where the years will sweeten the impact the moment it has on the bride. This picture gives you insight into the person. Concentrate more on the juxtaposition of the grungy Converse low tops with the wedding dress. The other pair of feet are not needed. Needed to be more simple, but still great picture. There were lots of pictures of feet and shoes. This was the most surprising.

This must've been a fun wedding to photograph. This couple obviously has a sense of humor and will appreciate this picture years from now. Even in hindsight they'll have a giggle and probably wonder, "What were we thinking?!" Hopefully photographers will remember that these small details will add so much color to the event in the long-term. Sometimes we forget to appreciate or notice the subtle beauty in life and it takes a few moments like this picture to give the ceremony a sense of place and time. Good attention to detail. Nice read.

Sure it's a subtle moment, but it takes an eye for small detail like this photographer has, to capture a timeless moment.

All of the elements lead the eye to the couple's rings. We hope this photo was captured naturally.

A sense of mystery makes this unusual frame stand out. Kudos to the photographer for capturing this dreamy and surreal [image] of the bride's dress.
