Last week we had the pleasure of being guests at Jim and Michelle Kelly's wedding near Bathgate. The ceremony was led by a mad reverend, who had the guests in fits of giggles before the bride had even arrived. I think he would do very well indeed as a stand up at the Fringe this Summer. The day itself was a little wet, but that did nothing to 'dampen' (ahem) the spirit of the day. Michelle was a gorgeous bride, and the couple were very graceful hosts. This was the first wedding I had been to with my camera, and wedding photography is certainly not easy as it may seem. There are all sorts of concerns, mainly to do with the fact you can only possibly be in one place at any given time! I can definitely see the advantage of taking an aesthetically eyed chum along as an extra set of eyes.
Throughout the day I took over 600 photographs, and that was in between eating, singing and dancing! I shudder to think how many I would have taken if I was actually the professional, with no socialising to get in the way- easily thousands. Just imagining the weeks of editing is a daunting thought, it's a good job I enjoy my own company....
