Default First Wedding

Noon day sun and my external flash breaking doing fill flash aside, I think my first wedding shoot didn't come out too badly!

They were just an absolute dream couple, too. Obnoxiously adorable together, completely laid back, and just hassle free to work with! Now it's just a matter of sorting through the huge pile of pictures to decide which are worth showing, and hoping they like them!

The first shot looks like something from a catalog. Good composition.

The schedule for the reception turned out to be much more intense than I had anticipated. Dinner and dancing at 7 turned out to be dinner at seven, waiting for a few people to show up, dancing starting at 10, and their first dance and cake cutting not until nearly midnight! Since I started taking set up pictures at 10:30 am I was a little beat....

One tip I definitely picked up, it helps when the bride and groom are absolutely nuts for each other, ridiculously good looking, and completely laid back and easy going!
