Yeah I thought the WB was warm this is out of the camera shot not touched it yet!
Church was a bit dark and lighting very low!

Was you using a 24-70?

Yes It was, My first wedding shoot, not easy stuff.
The 24-70 was the safe bet, looking at my framing on some shot I can see where I went wrong or could improve but kinda felt rushed a bit do could have done better.
Especially with the flash!

Nice shots of Conwy and Llandudno. Everytime i visit there it rains and the pier blast Max Bygreaves albums.
Two new shots from me, something a tad different:

The second and fourth are the best for me. The focal point in the first one doesn't work well as the first thing you look at is the memorial behind it, which is blurred out. The second has nice composition and style, wouldn't really touch it personally. The third doesn't work for me because I struggle to read what the sign actually says. I know why you've done it (for the bokeeeeeh!), but you have to bare in mind that people have to read things, unless you intentionally want to isolate key words. To really pull off this sort of shot whilst having all of the words in focus, you need to focus on the plate towards the far left or right of the frame, then either concentrate on blurring out the background that way or look at doing a 45 degree angle shot at the plate at a smaller aperture but with reduced bokeh.
The fourth is great and is right up my street. Like the subtle shadow at the bottom of the frame and the focal point.
The fifth is by far the worst of the bunch for me as its a full on "marmite" style photo. Love or hate it, personally doesn't do anything for me mate!
No worries
The more you go out, even to the same place, the better the photos usually get. This is especially true if you ever want to take photos of animals as you either need luck, or just observe their habits (feeding times, activity time etc). Just remember theres life outside of bokeh
