So a friend of mine had a friend shoot her wedding for free and she just got the pictures back and showed me....first off the wedding was 6 months ago. So she called me to ask what I thought and showed me the images because she thought they didn't look good. Yeah they are terrible. Her friend used a D80 with a 28-200mm 3.8-5.6 lens and she had the camera on SMALL JPG. All the images are 2.5 MP jpg (1900 x 1200) and underexposed. The files are 300k each!!!!! I feel so bad for her. She asked me to do the wedding and I declined because of the free part and she is a friend both of which spell disaster. The images are not even salvageable. I pulled a few up in LR and they were all 1.5-2 stops underexposed and that is before we talk about skill. Now she doesn't know what to do because it is a friend...
I guess this is a perfect example of why you don't do weddings for friends for free and even more so when you don't know what you are doing.
So glad I didn't do it!
I would post examples but they aren't my images.
