wedding «

I don’t normally take on weddings but after taking pictures for “S” twice already, I was happy to do it!! The wedding was beautiful, located at a botanical gardens that I didn’t even know existed. In fact, I don’t think anyone knew it existed before Saturday. What a beautiful place, full of trees, paths, plant life, ponds, etc.

I was a nervous wreck though, it’s my nature. I usually stick to all natural light outdoors so using my flash was a challenge (part of the reason that weddings make me so nervous). But there was a lot of light mixed with shade coming through all the trees so I had no choice. For the most part, my flash worked quite well.

It was late in the afternoon but still a little warm. I don’t know if it was the heat or the nervousness but I was sweating to the point of pure embarrassment. Note to self: if I ever take on another wedding, I’d bringing someone to wipe my forehead. I have to give a huge thanks to Brad (the hubby) for helping me out so much. I don’t think I could’ve done it without him. He helps me stay organized, carries most of my equipment, gives me posing ideas when I’m braindead, love that guy!!!
