A great humorous moment. Good [wedding] photojournalism. An unusual moment. Looks like something from a Laurel and Hardy movie.

An intriquing image, humorous, nice soft lighting. Simple and humorous. Like the mirrored (literally) images of the two girls. Well-composed and well timed....a mirror image in a "mirror image".

So much action in this photo - the eye stays busy seeing all the different situations going on. There's a lot going on in the photo. It's humorous and it tells the story.

This photo has beautiful light and a layered photo with nice moments. It feels as if the men in the room were totally unaware of the photographer. Reminds me of a 18th century painting by Velasquez.

This photo stood out from the rest because of its interesting and beautiful composition. I loved that it was an expected 'getting-ready' shot - photographed completely different from everyone else. Great sense of motion.

The photographer did a nice job of stepping back and using the nice space around the subjects. Also a nice job on the exposure. The half silhoutte makes this better.

Very graceful depiction from the calm before the storm.

Great detail- shows that the photographer was definitely looking past the obvious. It shows so clearly in a tight close-up, the emotions of the groom.

Story telling and detail all in one photo.
