I'm skipping another wedding in order to post photos from this wedding. So don't be alarmed when the next wedding post is from an earlier date. =)
Today's post is about encouraging hobbyists to think out of the box, always challenging oneself to do things differently, and being excited with new approaches to photographing the same items. Remember, the key word here is -
Out of the box. Think out of the box.For more photographs click

I was shooting a wedding this Friday, and someone who saw the photo of the shoe I just did asked why I had so much interest in shoes (almost to a point of fetish). Actually, the average wedding photographer likes to shoot the bride's shoes. So it's nothing extraordinary really. Another reason is because I live in Marikina and have more interest in the built of shoes in general. Since men's shoes seem redundant, women's shoes are more interesting to photograph. Although wedding after wedding, the shoes do change, it takes a great deal of effort to come up with a different shoe shot everytime and prevent oneself from repeating, or re-hashing an old idea. I'm glad this idea is new. =)
Shooting along with the videographer who made the video light pass through the space between the wedding items.
The classic photographic approach to shooting the bouquet, upright with shallow depth of field.

Leander's father, who is out of the country, calls to greet his son and daughter-in-law and cracks a joke, to which the couple give off a hearty laugh.

@Aei:
Thanks. I'm glad you like the invitation photo. That one's from a macro lens if I remember it right.
Haha. Honestly, I didn't notice the bride's nudge on her eyebrow. But I'm happy you think I'm an asset.
Hope you've seen my latest 2008 selection of candid photos in my multiply:

I like the sharpness of the items on the invitation picture. It's very classy, and very Pinoy at the same time. I could mistake it for a vintage picture too because of the rusty colors (I'm a fan of vintage, raw looking images).
You were able to catch that little nudge on the woman's eyebrow on the last photo, portraying very authentic emotions.. Astig, kuya Dan, you're a true asset to the country's event photographers! :D |
