Weddings: Linsdey & Ben {Southern Illinois Wedding Photographer}

Saturday, April 24, 2010

So, I kind of forget to get this posted.....should have been done months ago. This was my very first wedding which took place on a beach in Destin, FL. Not only was I nervous about it being my first wedding but also because it was on a beach!
Of course people weren't nice enough to move out of the frame for the pictures so any shoots of the ocean at one point in time had people in them (most of which you really didn't want to see in their bathing suits). While I was quite nervous and thought of at least 50 other pictures I wished we'd have taken once the wedding was over, I'm happy with how things turned out.
Couple of lessons learned: 1) It gets dark fast once the sun starts to set on the beach - be sure to always bring a flash. The grey cast people have once the sun hits a certain point in the sky isn't the most attractive color for humans! 2) I now understand why photographers won't let people snap pictures behind them - the subjects you're taking pictures of tend to look at the people they know taking their picture and not the 'photographer'.
Big ol' THANK YOU to Lindsey and Ben for trusting me to take your wedding pictures!
I hope you enjoy them.
