So my girlfriend and I were shooting a wedding together last last weekend, and we were both taking the same shot of the bride and groom. After we took the photo, I looked at my screen and noticed that it was blown out. "Strange" I thought. My flash was on manual and my other shots were properly exposed. Then I noticed my girlfriend had the same problem with her picture. We had caught each other's flashes! I was at 1/60th of a second, and she was at 160th! We must be made for each other, huh?

Here's mine:

And her's (still getting used to the DOF on the tilt shift):

Happen more often than I'd like to, from guests' flashes. Your gf is your second shooter, what was she doing shooting the same thing you were shooting?

On the other hand, I'd love for my wife to shoot with me, but she didn't want to. She'd love for me to clean up the house with her however.

one was a standard lens and the other a tilt shift. 2 different looks even though they are the same shot.
