Wedding last month

17 08 2008

Finally took the time to post some of the shots I took at my brother?s wedding last month.
It was my first wedding shooting alone, I had only shot once before at a wedding, a couple of months ago when I didn?t have the 5D yet.
I must say that I was pretty nervous, even though my brother didn?t know I was going to make an album out of the photo?s.
It was a very small wedding, so they didn?t want an ?official photog?.
I?m not 100% happy with the photo?s, but my brother and sister-in-law really like the album, so me not liking the images 100% isn?t too important.

Our dad near the car, I totally over-exposed this shot, managed to more less make it useable in Canons RAW processor applying -2 EV.

And again after arriving at the city hall. I quite like the ?vintage? edit on this one, mostly because of the old chevy in the back.

The couple again. My brother doesn?t seem to like what the official is saying too much… must?ve been the part where he was talking about him (note the brid?s laugh).
