I Do, I Do, I Do, (It's about informal wedding photos)

From time to time people ask about how to photograph a wedding informally.

The answer is here: http://todayspictures.slate.com/doublehappy/

My favorite would be this one by Chien-Chi Chang of a wedding couple and a tourist group in the same place at the same time.

This is the way I prefer to work, and it's also the reason I've begged off many a request to do a wedding shoot unless certain ground rules are met. When it works, though, it can be close to divine.

I've done a grand total of 2 weddings so far - only for family and close friends - too much hassle otherwise.

Traditional Chinese - my brother's wedding - this is when the bride and groom go around to every table for a toast.

I've never done a wedding myself. And likely never will.

But I do enjoy looking for the bloopers in the local pro wedding place.

Recent favorite was attractive bride looking bored next to nerdy groom looking delighted.

I do a fAIR AMOUNT OF WEDDINGS AND OTHER SPECIAL EVENTS.
Here my ground rules:
1. I never charge.
2. I shot digital and only Jpeg.
3. I own all photographs.
4. I may use any photos for my own purposes.
5. All photos are delivered on a CD.

I've done maybe ten weddings over the last 30 years...it's not something I really look forward to do...the last one was in October 2007 for good friends (both their second marriage) so it was more relaxed...
If I never do another one I'm fine with that...Thank God for those that love shooting them...
And I agree that the photos above are very nice...
