Well-executed photograph. The little bit of flash blur adds energy to the moment. Harder than it looks. The photographer had to be ready, had to time this perfectly and had to have the strobe settings just right. Very nice image.

Quiet, extremely sweet moment.

Lots of photos of people being thrown in the air, but none others had the emotion, body position, and the rip in the pants. Another stellar photo! Classic image! Would have been great to begin with but the rip in the groom's pants just elevates it to a whole new level. Glad he wasn't going "commando". I am drawn to the energy in this photograph, but it is the split in his pants that takes this moment to a higher level. Ok, some images just capture a rare moment of human imprecision that makes us all laugh. Classic picture. Dancing to the extreme.

Absolutely lovely detail. Love the barefoot bride! Beautiful photograph. The combination of warm back lighting and effective cropping gives this image a timeless quality. Beautiful, simple composition and tonal palette and joyous sense of energy.

Fun moment, but I wish for more connection between the subjects.

I really like how the off camera strobe accentuates the bold colors and adds texture. Strong moment too.

Just plain fun! Love their expressions. Hands coming in at both ends of frame add tension to the lively composition.

I love the expression and unique body language, but the highlight is too blown out and distracting.
