Shoes should be staggered to create a more fluid “S” line. The necklace and earrings in the box create a “face” which is distracting.
Use a telephoto lens to eliminate distortion. Stand on something higher or have the bride sit so it’s not an up-shot. The earring does not always have to be visible but it’s a quicker read to show her hands in front putting the earring on, rather than hidden behind her face.
Change the angle so it’s not a top-down shot because she loses all shape. The crop on her face is unflattering. Changing the angle to more of a side-view showcases the shape of her hair, face, and body more.
Change angle or location to eliminate light spot on her face. Lighting should be even across all subjects in formally posed portraits.
The highlights on his face are unflattering. Switch their positions so she can stand in his shadow. Bouquet should be lowered to show her figure.
Varying their arm positions create a more dynamic pose and a more interesting image. Tilt his head back so it’s more profiled to accentuate the jawline better.
