I was lucky enough to get invited to my friends wedding and used my new Sigma 70-200mm 2.8 APO EX DG Macro. What a lens! First time using a $1000+ glass. Here are some of my first wedding photography.

I'm sure the B&G will love #3 :) Nice work.

In general I think the WB is too warm - I like the warm tones in the background, but the skin is too orange for my taste. Apart from that, maybe try some curves work to separate the groom from the background?

The last one is great composition-wise. The first one is nice, but you might want to crop some room off on the top, too much dead space on the top. I agree regarding the skin tones comments by rooboy. I'd cool them down if you shot these in RAW.

Great work.

You did good on your first wedding experience :)

As above, Cool down the WB for skin tones and give them #3 for printing (or DIY).

Thanks for the comment fellas and after taking a second look, I agree that these shots are a little too warm. I might play around with curves, wb and saturation to make it less warm as people have suggested

EDIT: I just reduced the temp and reduced the orange saturation. Thank you RAW
