Wedding photography

Can be very stressful. Every shot counts! But in the end when you are looking at the product, a photographer is just as excited as the bride to see exactly what has been captured (well the photographer should be– if they aren’t– they aren’t ready to do weddings!)

I had a last minute wedding this weekend, I generally like to have at least a few weeks to prepare and ask questions about a session before embarking on it, but all in all I feel that the results were great. Everyone has some should have moments, but that’s the nature of it all, always learning

If you would like to see some of my most recent session — they are at:

Mass Frustration…

How many photographers out there practice with their children repeatedly, and then one day see good lighting conditions and say, okay lets get something to hang on the wall! The product? They get terrible results of their children cheesing for the camera and lets face it, being downright pains in the butt!

Its a good thing they are cute, I know there were lots of mosquitoes, but please honestly, had they chilled out for 3 minutes, it would have been done and over, after about 10 minutes of getting eaten alive right along with them, I gave up… here are 3 perfect examples of how all the shots turned out…

I love them dearly, but my goodness, I hate the idea of paying someone else to take the photographs when with just a carefully placed bribed I could get beautiful shots of them, not so long ago!
