My day assisting a wedding photographer.

ScottS · Mar 25, 2008

And i loved every minute of it. It happened a while ago, and i finally got done editing the pictures. ( i gave a copy of all the images i took to the photographer immediately after the wedding )

My main job was to assist the photographer, so i didn't have a lot of time to shoot, but i did get some good, spontaneous shots.

1. The bride has 2 kids already, as seen below they were right there with the bride and groom.

2. They had a photo of the brides parents when they got married, and wanted to duplicate it as much as possible. That's why this one looks different. I wish i would have snapped a photo of the original so you could see how similar they are! :mrgreen:

3. The bride. Bouncing the flash off the wall with a fill card. This shot was used in the dress designers book.

4. The bride again. ( looks a bit dark, ill have to fix that. )

5. They meet on the staircase.

6. Taking a break while getting ready. Amongst the chaos.

7. Dancing!

8. The ROCKS! :hail:

Looks like you got some great shots.

As files to give the client, I think they are good (room for different crops) but as they are here...I think that you could crop tighter on most of them.

Thanks!
Yea this was the big one. Haha I think they spent most of their money on the food for the guests. Fillet mignon (sp?) and lobster tail for a main course, with a gourmet desert.

Oh and 2 open bars. :er:

I would say that there was a grand total of about... 150-200 people attending.

Which lens did you use?

MarcusM · Apr 5, 2008

some nice shots.

on #7...why does it look like the kid has no legs?

ScottS · Apr 5, 2008

Thanks!
The lenses i used were,
My normal quantaray 18-125
Nikon 70-200 2.8 VR. (amazing lens)

In #7 it looks like she has no legs partially because she is searing black tights and black shoes, and I also cut them out of the picture accidentally.

oops.
