Nice series, a little low in contrast, but like the mood. Congrats on your
upcoming marriage, she's beautiful!

I think it's the scan, i shot these with an enlarger lens over a light board and left the exposure to auto.. I liked them tho, so there is no pp at all done. As you can see from the "borders"

And thank you!, she's a wonderful person

Congrats for your beautiful lady! I also like better contrasts, may worth to try some pp and publish here too.

Thank you kindly, I fixed the contrast on a few of them. Unfortunately the camera I shot these with apparently had a light leak, so many pictures have a think line over them. Worst part is that I shot 3 rolls before I developed and noticed.

Thank you kindly, and I do like them better with a bit of contrast aswell.

Very nice, especially the last one.
The contrast isn't the problem. I think that about -1 stop brightness (+1ev stop during digitalisation; could be also done in lightroom) and increasing the black levels (in lightroom etc.) would do most the job without playing with the contrast.

I like the fixed ones more. I do tend to err on the side of under developing to make scanning easier.

Very nice. I too like the last most. And the borders you didn't crop out work very well too. Smile
