Hi
I just did my first wedding solo.
Although it was for a family friend, I was thee only photographer so everything was on my shoulders. I usually just take lots of photos at the weddings of family and friends as a hobby, along with the paid photographer.
I was shooting for 11 hours, went through 4 2GB memory cards, at least 3 camera batteries and 2 sets of AA batteries for the flash. By the end of the night my hand was completely cramped and so were my legs!
The most difficult part of this is that I shot in manual mode so that I could choose the ISO and white balance settings b/c I don't even know what to do w/ a RAW photo. Some of the pictures came out horrible, some fantastic. But I didn't get paid for it, and saved them about $4,000. That's the last time I won't charge for my services.
Another thing - getting the dress to be white, not grey, is difficult with indorr lighting. Practice
