R + J | Shoot from a professional wedding guest: The Triology

[Braineack]

This will be the last in this series as I have no more unmarried friends.

The bride actually introduced me to my wife 15 years ago. The actual paid wedding photography was another HS friend who I even went to prom with, and I played a small role in her meeting her own husband, who is her second shooter.


My wife was in the wedding party, so I got some behind the scenes footage, so time to get prepped --

Now, the real photographer just showed up from NYC, so I stayed out of the way, but I got a few shots of her getting some pretty good shots.

Nice series!

Some nice behind-the-scenes moments. Nice color. I liked the cloud of hairspray, the two guys holding the purses and shoes, and the pretty redhead holding up the glass of champagne. You got a good shot of the missus there too! You know, if you compare this color palette against what say, the Nikon D1-series had, there's been a huuuuuge improvement in digital color under real, outdoor, bright-light daylight shooting conditions. Like in that shot of the wedding party...the woman's back, being hit by direct sunlight...there was a time when that would have had a neon-yelow "glow", and been totally,totally "nuked". Which is why I say nice color.

Thanks. I'm really happy with the D600 and my glass.

The rest weren't that great. I was too busy enjoying the open bar...

Here are some shots through a candelabra --
