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 PowerLights®, 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. I do think they use air conditioned trucks, however. I know that I used to repair office machinery at Berkovitch cigars in Oakland. they were a middleman for candy bars and cigarettes and film. They had a nice air conditioned warehouse for all their goodies before they shipped them out in local trucks and vans to the local stores. I think car air conditioning is good enough for film..... I work for a courier company, and neither the delivery trucks or freight trailers are air-conditioned or refridgerated, so the film is probably okay, for a day or two, here and there...... W |

Posed shots are commonly done after the ceremony, from what I've read (a practice probably related to the superstition about it being bad luck for the groom to see the bride in her wedding dress prior to the actual ceremony), but I have no personal experience. if I was to take a guess, then I'd say after the ceremony is better since the couple will be a lot more relaxed after the "official" part is over. They'll be beaming and happy, not anxious and nervous, but that's just a guess from my side. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

I do some of both, for the Bride and Groom seperately
I do individual portraits. As well Bride with family and Bridesmaids before hand. Likewise with the Groom. After the ceremony I do the alter returns, any groups that could not be done before hand and the Bride and groom together. Most people I photographer do not want the Groom or Bride to see each other before hand.

I think you were the sweaty haggard one, holding all that
expensive Hasselblad gear. Come on now admit it, was really you that was in a hurry to get drunk.

You tactfully explain that by doing the formals ahead of the time, they will look better and can enjoy their reception with friends and relatives instead of being continually hassled by a photographer. |

t... In article , says... In article , Marc 182 wrote: 1. Don't do it. An option. Leaves the couple with snaps taken with disposable plastic cameras scattered around. Do you really think that's a better result than what an interested and alert amateur can produce with a good 35mm? OK, screw it up and make enemies for life. 2. Use medium format. Not an option. They don't have the money to pay for that. Sometimes people just can't afford your snobbery. It's not snobbery, but then you amateurs just wouldn't understand. I wish they would take safety warning labels off of things and allow the idiots of the world to kill themselves. THAT snobbery. Marc Fear not, Randall would be one of the first to die. Peter |
