Default Amateur wedding photos - how to meter?

Yer probably right. But somehow I keep getting hired without doing

Let's keep it our little secret though Randy. :-)


I really think that the photojournalism thing is a fad and will not
endure. For many, it's a coverup for lack of talent.

****, if only the 300D were as predictably reliable a performer as my
Peavey axes, I wouldn't be grinding the E-TTL axe whenever the subject
comes up.


I've never been a fan of anything Peavey. I have a Strat, Jazz bass, a
cheap Yamaha acoustic, a 6-string banjo, and a 6/12 doubleneck. The
Strat goes through a Mesa Boogie, the banjo and acoustic through a
Marshall acoustic amp, and the bass through a Fender bass head/bin.

Got any flash photography galleries to share in a wedding bent to
enlighten us further?


I stopped doing weddings in 1995 and hope to never do another. I used 2
lights - Norman portable for a long time and Photogenic AC-powered
lights in the later years.
