Yeah. I know.
But I wanted to share this series with you. When Sharkie shot the first image, he had no idea of the significance of what he'd shot.
The day before the wedding, he and I were at the venue for the reception, double and tripple checking lighting, spacing, and all of that other nonsense that goes along with shooting weddings. Vic - Sharkie - looked over, and happened to catch this image:
Post using Nik Silver Efex Pro... Which I love.
Which was cool and all, but... Well, testing lighting, right?
The next day was the big one. The weather was great, everyone looked perfect, and the wedding ceremony went smoothly (yeah, that actually happens apparently!).Before the reception we were stalking around, and one-or-the-other of us caught this image:
Nik software again, because...I still love it. No, this isn't HDR.
Which is fun and pretty and all, but...Meh.
Then the reception came. Rather than a speech, the [very talented] brother of the bride wrote and performed a song that had everyone in attendance alternating between tears and stitches.
Still Nik'd... Still love it
And the importance of what we'd unintentionally captured became clear. We photographed brother writing the song (entirely legible!), we photographed him practising the completed song, and we caught him performing it. *Wipes tear*
It's the details that make the day, and this series is a fave.
