TPF Noob!
Man! My palms are sweating just reading this thread! I remember all too well shooting my first wedding as the hired gun. What a disaster! Name the problem, and I had it
Poor lighting in the church that I was not prepared for, malfunctioning equipment (self-induced) and of course, my inexperience with crowd control. Thankfully, the bride and groom knew they had hired a complete noob and were good sports about my insistence to re-shoot many of the formals post-ceremony!
Wedding photography is definitely not for the faint of heart!
PhotoFanatic: If you have the opportunity, speak with the hired photog prior to the event. Ask him/her the questions posed in your original post. Most pro shooters are more than willing to share advice and tips.
