Tonight Matthew, I'm going to be a wedding photographer

That was one of the most terrifying experiences of my life - not because of the three people there I now have absolutely nothing in common with, and no desire to talk to - but because of the responsibility. I swear I was more worried than esrunkatsu

Even in these days where even peoples' pets have digital cameras there's a lot of responsibility in being "bride's friend in charge of photography". Still. the results I've been through so far are ok. There are clearly some things I need to do differently in the future (as well as insist on better lit venues) but it's part of the learning process.

Here's one of the reception.


Canon EOS 10D; Sigma 70-200mm f2.8; ISO 800; 1/30sec; 126mm @ f2.8

And one during the service.


Canon EOS 10D; Sigma 24-70mm f2.8; ISO 1600; 1/180sec; 52mm @ f2.8

Many more over the next few days - I'm working on about 200 half-decent ones out of the 550 I took.
