I photographed my first wedding ever last month- a nerve-wracking yet excellent experience if there ever was one, compounded by the fact that the reception took place in a large barn. At night. My poor 430EX flash cried (I eventually gave up on it in favor of slow shutter speeds, which I tend to like better anyway. Nobody tell Rita).
But besides the barn shenanigans, the wedding itself was fantastic—you know it’s going to be good when there are not one but THREE drum kits set up at the bandstand—and I feel so lucky that I was able to shoot it.
I shot well over 600 photos, which I edited down to about 250 that ended up being toned and uploaded to Flickr. It’s hard to choose selects from those, but these are some (well, okay, many) of the ones I liked best.
These are great, Ivy! Looks like you captured some very special memories.
It’s only your first wedding? Great job. I think the 3rd shot is my favorite. You really captured the mood
