Excellent shots and good lighting - the first one in particular is beautiful!
I think the second one could do with a slight adjustment on the white balance to match the first image as the skin tones are quite different.
Go easy on the processing on the skin

thanks dominic, i did a little crossprocess on the cuves to change the skintone. I think your right the 1st image skin tone is much better. Cheers

Good stuff. The first one is excellent. The make up, pose all work together to make is wow.

Dominic. Are you serious when you say good lighting for such shots. Or you being sarcy?

How about having a second look?

How about both front lights/reflector smack in the face?

How about one light way high up in the sky which translate in shadows and unwanted transparency on the hair line?

How about the blown reflection on the forehead in 1 + 2?

How about the nose blown highlight?

How about highlight burning out the make up?

How about the colour of the make up?

How about the shadow of the veil on the front head.

All in all, beautiful woman but the shots are not doing it justice.

You are right Soura. Dominic is completely wrong on this one.

The blown highlight on the nose has killed what would have otherwise been an outstanding image.
