I like the colours and tones here, they all work well together.

Feels unnaturally panned upwards. In other words, why not show more of the bride's gown and kids' feet, and less of the trees?

Darling capture, playful. Need a bit of light/levels adjustment but it's charming.

This is such a cute, fun shot. I love the look like they are playing in the woods. And their being all dressed up in white adds a fairy tale like quality to the photo. This is awesome!
