First Solo Wedding

Wazza · 8th of March 2006 (Wed)

Thought it was about time to share some shots I did from a wedding I shot 2 weeks ago.

It was a good chance to test out the new gear, incluing stroboframe, 85mm 1.8, and the bulkier BG-E2.

A spontaneous shoot, walking down the hallway.. Only had the 85 on at the time, so couldn't do too much with it.

All these shots are completely unprocessed. No cropping, no changes, accept convert from RAW, and a USM to crisp up from resize.

Having a laugh

Just had to get one in front of Auckland's Landmark

Transport

(the only real photoshop, and still was a quick one.. Nothing proper

)

Love number 10 and 11
I personally would cropped the sepia shot a little bi wider(just a tiny little bit).

Fantastic shots, you can be proud.

Have to wonder though, how did the bride's gown stay up

iKirst · 8th of March 2006 (Wed)

Beautiful captures, Warren

There is absolutely no reason to doubt your talent for any form of photography you focus on. You're very gifted.

Had it been me sharing those photos for you, I would have had trouble narrowing it down to just those few, I saw many more that were worth posting in here.

Nice work Wazza! Did you find it a bit harder when you're flying solo?

MattL · 8th of March 2006 (Wed)

Sorry Warren, I had to turn off your simpleviewer gallery. Ill explain when you get home from work. Nice shots bud.

imrtun · 8th of March 2006 (Wed)
