    What don't you like about them?! I think they are gorgeous! You look awesome!!

    I will say as soon as I saw mine I started finding flaws. I will be changing my hair slightly as a result but everyone tells me I'm crazy!

    I am not a fan of the black and white conversions but I don't think they are that bad.  You have a good variation, the only things that bother me is that for the first few and a few mixed in towards the end the backgrounds blend in with your dress too much.   I wished the photographer picked backgrounds that were darker or had color so your dress stood out more.  i don't like that white sky at all when looking at it and your dress in the same frame.  The only other nitpick is the horizons cutting through your head in a few is distracting.  Other than that, I am sure you can pick a few that will print nice.

    thanks ladies.. yes right as i saw them i was picking flaws.. i am very insecure about my weight iv lost about 15lbs but still feel huge! (im a girl what can i say) i guess i was just expecting better since my photographer is amazing which yes she did a great job i think its just me and me not being comfortable in front of cameras. i dont like showing my arms and i picked a straples dress.. silly me!

    thanks ladies you all are making me feel alot better i was getting teary eyed looking at them wasnt feeling like i looked beautiful like i want to on my wedding day.

    @USER876: I think the average bride would never nitpick the contrast from a bad B&W conversion because they have no idea what that really is ;-). I think you get a little bogged down in the technicalities of the photos whan all the bride wants is reassurance that she doesn't look "fat"

    @OP - you look gorgeous, and your photos have a real dreamy quality to them!

    These are beautiful photos, and you look stunning. We all see what we think are flaws that no one else would ever see. :)

    @crayfish:  well there you have it, I assumed she meant the technical merit because there is nothing even remotely fat in those pictures for me to even guess that was an afterthought!

    Wow, you're gorgeous!!  No one else will see whatever flaws you are seeing, trust me.  I see nothing wrong with these photos.  I did the same thing when I got my engagement photos back.  Sucks being female, doesn't it?
