That expression is priceless.

Beautiful pictures, Melanie, both technically, and in the way you’ve conveyed their feelings. #1 & #11 are my favorites, but they’re all very fine.

Great work Melanie. I did some wedding photography, PJ style, just two-three weeks ago. Here's some of the better shots:

WOW! Very humbling! Very inspiring. I've shot ten weddings as a second shooter and only get intimate shots like these from afar with my 85 or 135.

Well, it helps to be part of the wedding party.

Thanks for all the nice comments, guys.
