It's been a little while since I posted something....Engineering life is pretty busy for me! But I am having tons of fun working on a new project!
I'll be heading to the H early Friday to shoot the wedding ceremony of two college friends of mine. I did their engagement session (my first ever) last year and was quite pleased with myself after about 2 months of learning how to shoot with a DSLR camera. I will be gone till Sunday so I should be posting some photos early next week if possible.
While I am there, I'll also be shooting an engagement session of another friend getting married in December. I'm hoping to shoot their wedding in Nigeria also if Engineering life can allow me the time. But we'll see how that goes. A destination wedding will be sweet!
I'm already thinking outside my box once again on how to make this wedding better than my last and I'm pretty positive it will be a good one. I'll be shooting with another Houston Photographer so that'll give me an opportunity to network with photographers in Houston.
By the way, has anyone ever shot a wedding where the church imposes certain rules and regulations that MUST be followed or else...? Well I was quite amazed last year when I saw the form photographers will have to fill out before shooting a wedding ceremony. I had not given it much attention until this week. I guess every church has different rules. I've posted a snap shot of what I will have to follow come Saturday. I just hope it doesn't hold me back from documenting important moments.
Oh by the way....Flash is not allowed in the church chapel! That is quite exciting (You think I am crazy huh?). Natural Light all the way. I guess it must be well lit indoors so the need for a strobe is 0. I love noisy images anyway so if its not well lit, my 30/40D should be more than happy to handle the noise. We'll see how it goes!
Wish me luck!

I shot in a church where flash is not allowed and photographs can only be taken from the back of the church and from the sides.
Plan to shoot with High ISOs and I think you are going to be using your 70-200mm f/2.8 alot in the church.
Yeah man, welcome to Texas! Lots of the older churches (esp the ones popular for weddings) have rules like this.
In fact, I just got a release that looks almost *exactly* like this one for my Labor Day weekend wedding.
