I had the chance to shoot my first wedding last month and what an utterly frustrating, stressful, fast-paced time. I did it as a favor for a friend and was his second shooter and even though we both did it for free, I can't quite say that I would ever shoot a wedding again. It was way too stressful for me.

I took about 570 pictures and had about 100 keepers and these are the best ones out of all those in my opinion.

Nice captures! One thing that I noticed immediately was the skin tone on the bride and groom is too red.

I did edit them kind of warm, but on my monitor it looks ok. I might have to recalibrate my monitor again.

She was just one of those people that has squinty eyes when smiling or laughing.

And yes, these were the keepers.
