Fun and different! I like the use of the the wedding party being used as shapes to frame the groom. Nice angle. Like the relaxed feeling. Choreographed situation but the subjects look comfortable within the framework.

Close look really lets you feel something about who this guy is. Light is dramatic.

A very funny image of a very serious groom. He is up against the wall, in an almost police line-up kind of pose. The loose frame with all the negative space adds to the ludicrous nature of the image. His drop shadow is the only distraction.

I love the city back ground and that the photographer took some chances. Great perspective!

The light and composition using reflections put the groom in a flattering setting.

A simple, warm, genuine portrait. It has a very nice casual feel to it. The soft window light is very pretty and the details of the room are interesting without being distracting. But mostly it is the direct unassuming expression of the groom that makes this work.
