Many thanks Colin - I figured I was probably going to end up in Manchester!!

The higher the divorce rate the higher the potential amount of work for wedding photographers! (Remarriages etc Ah! So that's who the real instigators are, then!!! ;) jas

Thanks for the link Stuart, and thanks to everyone else for their help too. :)

Which it does quite admirably from the limited tests I've done so far! :-)

James As someone who I understood did portrait photography I am surprised you only lit the group with one light (Unless I misread the previous posts) Due to inclement weather I have had to photograph groups many times indoors (Particular winter weddings in Scotland) and a simple set up of two portable stands and basic flash guns and shooting through small white brollies works fine with th...

Well done in admitting your mistakes, I know many pros (myself included to a degree) who won't! Why make it your last wedding assignment though? You sound like you've made a good start, identified where you can improve and the no so good points you have highlighted form the basis of a good action plan to move forward. You just need to work through them now, addressing each one in turn.

Very interesting stuff. (Dropped you a PM Cole...)

Can you tell us more on the ones you've tested (availability, dealer, price?). Not as yet as they are still being trialed. As for the reception lights ive been in contact with the company and im waiting for a reply as to when they will ship them to the UK.

It must be the "a change is as good as a rest" effect then well a customer base of hundreds of young 18- 30s girls is very usefull, also wedding go on what ever the weather and are a little bit more glam than horse eventing not changing for good just altering the business model, out go non earning shows, income weddings and good earning hunter tirals etc [quote][un-pc joke] Mak...

Hi What i did when i took the photo's for my stepdaughter's wedding the other month.

Plus everyone gets to see all the photo's. Well it sounds like you had a good ti...

Gear envy photography!

Nic, Thanks for your reply, you may be interested to know that I don't favour IS lenses for wedding work because I don't want the risk of having the function switched on and me merrily taking pictures before the lens settles down - about a second I believe. For my personal photography at a more leisurely pace I am happy with the IS function. Regards, Peter. P.S. Nice website :-) It ...

Doh - have just seen the date!!! Good luck T

If my memory serves me correctly, On this forum some time ago, James offered to photograph another members wedding for the sum of 2500gbp, Again he is asking questions a complete beginner or someone who has taken some time to read the manual that came with his flash unit should know the answer to. If he has made any money from selling any photographs, he should invest in a couple of wedding and...
