[Ryan W]

ARGH! It was so scary too! Had alot fo fun though! and got paid for doing something I love to do ... Does it get much better?

The Ceremony started at 5pm, so not Natural light atall! Every shot with flash! Good fun, Good fun!

Would love some CC on how I can improve!

Wow, for your first wedding these were all pretty good pictures. I checked out all of the wedding photos and the were great captures.

I am hoping to shoot my first one soon and I am getting nervous already. :D

What was you lighting setup in most of these? Bounced flash?

[twofruitz]

Look fantastic to me :D

[henry_b]

[Ryan W]

Hi guys! Thanks for the amazing comments! I literally didn't stop moving for 10 hours!

Lighting set-up was flash tilted slightly forward from bounced with a Fong Dong on top :) I was actually really surprised how they turned out! :D

These comments mean so much to me! Thanks!

[SuzyView]

Yes, they are great images! Congrats. Glad to see you succeeded here. And the party looked like a blast, too.

[Ryan W]

That's quite a compliment comming from a Photographer as good as you! Thank you!

Just received an e-mail from the bride, they love the pictures and are putting together a big print order and we're discussing album design and prices! :D! Woop.

I think you did very well with the shots..lovely

[LowriderS10]

well done...they should be very happy with the pics :)

[Ryan W]

Yes, I was talking to you! :D

The only thing I messed up on was the group shot, as a 17 year old it was quite hard getting the attention of 122 people! But that's something to work on! :)

Thanks for the comments!

[ejicon]

really sharp shots. Congrats.

[Ryan W]

Thanks! I used my new Sigma 24-70 2.8! I LOVE this lens!

[Ryan W]

Any more C&C that i can learn from ? :)

[Matashi]

You did good for your first wedding. Love all of the pictures.

Hey Ryan,
Great Job with these, they all look great and all that matters is that the Bride and Groom love them, which you said they do. :)
We are about the same age, and I to booked my first wedding. By the date of the wedding I will be a few months shy of 17. I am very nervous as well. I hope mine tuns out good like yours!

Good Job!
