    My last wedding of 2009

    And due to school my first wedding of 2009 as main. I wasn't really advertising my biz because I knew school was gonna kick my butt and I didn't want my images (or schoolwork) to suffer because of being overloaded with either one.

    Alright, so I'm definitely not a Tony Hoffer or Ed Pingol (Or any other those other rockstars!), but I have learned a ton from ya'll

    LDS wedding, so no ceremony pics. I tried to be a little more creative than past weddings I've shot and expand myself. I did notice (compared to my previous weddings) my time setting up a formal shot decreased dramatically. I was also much more confident on this wedding than previous ones which is good

    A couple of these were shot by my friend/assistant Shane, who I believe lurks here but I don't think he's posted yet. C&C welcome.

    5. Wouldof loved to do a wider shot, but too much distraction on either side.

    7. California winters. About 55-60 degrees

    9. One of my favorites from the day


    10. Sam (or Spencer) did a family session like this. Once we got into the room I knew exactly what shot I wanted to do.

    13. They were VERY good. And while we were packing up we were told to take as much as we wanted. So I ended up with about 5 plates worth of them.

    These are all very nice. I'd hire you if I had to go through it again but thankfully I won't.
    That stair case shot really caught my attention.
    Keep Shooting!

    this is a great collection from the wedding, varied and keeps my interest.

    one thing i noticed right away though, is number 2 would have been better with the focus ont he bride... its a neat shot as it is, but as a book i just read said, the bride is goign to be the one buying the photos, (and its her day, so keep the focus on her)

    Wonderful job! I'm sure they are going to love them.

    Ha, I forgot about this thread!

    The MOTB and the Bride loved the photos. I got a chance to drop off the DVD the other day and it was nice getting a glowing email back from them. Now I just them to give me some referrals
