Two of my friends are getting married. They don't have the funds to
hire a photographer so they were just going to put disposable cameras
around and use those photos. They asked me to take a few shots. By
chance I have studio equipment (Photogenic PowerLightsŪ, Photogenic
PhotoMaster). I was planning to take some posed shots with my studio
lights before the ceremony. The want a shot coming down the aisle and
just two or three during the ceremony. I can use flash when the are
coming down the aisle but not during the ceremony. I don't know what
the lighting situation is in the church.
I was planning on taking Portra 100NC for the posed shots, coming down
the aisle, and some candid shots at the reception. I was thinking
Portra 400NC or Porta 800 for during the ceremony. I was also
thinking a roll of Reala.
They know to take what the get since I am not a professional. Without
me, they will not have much of anything so...
I will be traveling 250 miles the day before and I may not have access
to refrigeration. Any thoughts?
refrigeration is not that critical, do you think they ship it across the
country through deserts and the plains in refrigerated trucks? I think not.
so, what kind of paper does your lab run? A lot of folks would reply it
shouldn't make that much difference, which is my reply to the question of
film, it does astonish me that of all the concerns about shooting the
wedding, the first and only question asked is, what film?
do a google groups search on my name as there are lots of posts on how to
shoot weddings
