Oh yeah...so I photographed a wedding

Hey blog people, as many of you know, I do photography on the side. I get paid form time to time, and get to do some awesome things along with it. This time I got to do a wedding! and a bridal shoot and almost a year ago I did the engagement shoot for the same couple! WAHOO!

However, as first weddings go, it was a BIG learning experience. Good or bad, I learned a lot and the next wedding, I have planned for August, I hope to be better than the one I did. Oh and the one in September, I expect to be better than the two previous. It sounds weird, but photography works on a lot of the same principles that go with school, or writing, or learning anything! Practice makes perfect, each new thing you get better, the more you do the better you get. So along those lines I learned a lot about how to improve what I am doing, being more definitive on where I am taking photos, being bossy, being nice, and working my ass off.

The couple I did the photography for I knew a little in high school and through mutual friends and living in the same college town post-high school I was asked to be their photographer! What an honor! I mean I did not have to push, weasel, shove or anything to get the job, I was asked!

Thank you Jennifer and William!


So here are some shots from the fun, feedback is welcome!
