It's been a crazy couple of weeks starting with weddings on 9/9/09 and the general fall wedding rush starting here in Las Vegas. I've been shooting between four and eight weddings a day. I've done so many in the past several months I can't even remember how many I've shot. One thing for sure, I'll never fear shooting a wedding again (whether it's a large or small group of guests). I think I need to start a blog for real, something like A Las Vegas Wedding Photographer's Tale.
We get all types of people from every area on the globe. Yesterday I shot a couple from Poland, a couple from England, a couple from North Carolina and a local couple. I've shot drunk couples (not very common actually) and many couples that don't speak any English. Couple's who can't seem to wait until they get back to the hotel room (if you know what I mean) and couples that don't seem to actually like each other. We even had a dad who refused (rather rudely I might add) to walk his daughter down the isle, made rude sexual comments to one of our just out of High School girls assisting with the coordinator and then insulted everyone else in the chapel from family to staff. Luckily, he left after the ceremony and I didn't have to deal with him in the portrait session.
I even got some work with Photojohn at Interbike for a couple of days where I was shooting images for the virtual trade booths. :thumbsup:
Finally, have been able to squeeze a couple of model shoots into my schedule. Don't ask me how though. We had the Mr. Olympia competition in town this weekend and I shot a couple of the local attendies/competitors.
So here are a couple of images from the later:
