Went to a wedding yesterday. Had a lot of fun. The couple's favorite drink
is the Mojito. Guess what they served :D

i really loved the shot but flowers in foreground are really distracting

I agree - although the flowers are distracting, I love the fountain in the
background - perfect touch :)

More! Looks like a really nice setting.

Thanks everybody for the feedback! I agree about the bush. It's a bit
distracting.

The wedding was one of the most intimate weddings I've been too.
And I've got to say that I'm sure glad I wasn't the photographer :D
Lighting was tough. The scheduled start time was 5pm which put the
sun above the trees and with the ceremony's length, given the photographer
some great light to shoot in and something left for the formal stuff.

The late start put most of the facility in shadow very quickly.

The minister has just pronounced them husband and wife...

The reception was held on the same property. The doors opened to some
outdoor seating. Very nice flow.

The groom and I...really should have turned around but he was in a bit of
a hurry...something about a wedding to attend?

These were all shot with a Canon SD600. New to me camera so I used
it in auto mode. Not bad.

I've got to give a lot of credit to those of you that shoot weddings
professionally. This stuff is hard with all the people you need to know
for the day, the shots you have to get, etc.

Great shots with a little camera, Ian. It seemed to handle tough lighting fairly well. You might want to do a little red-eye reduction on the bride in the money dance piccy.

Thanks Chris. I'll probably do something to a few of them later.

A Flug shot!

Nice work with a wee cam. And a very nice capture at the perfect moment, here.
