Simple, fun. Great light and color. Unique way of looking at the situation.

The look on this woman's face says it all. She seems to be winding up, cake in hand. Her husband is laying a gentle hand on her arm, trying to soothe her to avoid getting served. The photographer could have made this picture with the groom in it, but shooting it this way is arguably more interesting. It brings us to her expression and body language, as well as giving us additional information with the guests to the left waiting to make a photo of his demise.

I love the bride's expression and the little dab of cake on the grooms nose. He is framed well by her arm and the cake.

It seems like the bride is trying to get some crumbs off the grooms face which is super cute. This photo might have been improved by finding a different angle or shooting tighter. Just their faces might have been a nice frame.

Another weird one. Looks like she's gonna punch him. Cake down the dress?

This girls face does a lot for this photo. Her reaction is priceless. However, tilting vertical photos should rarely be done, if ever in my book. Tilting here gives us the top part of this frame which adds nothing to the frame and cuts out her veil at the bottom. I feel like the photographer was tilting with the brides movement. If they had kept at an even keel we might have had a greater sense of her movement which could have done great things for the photo.
