depends on how demanding the clients are, if they don't care and you're not charging very much, couldn't be that stressfull.

well the good thing was that it was a little wedding maybe 100 people. the wrong thing was that i though it will be around 100 - 150 pics and they turned to be like 300. So my Card was max out. i learn that for weddings i maybe will bring to memory cards. I forgot to eat more! im starving right now.
the wierd thing, and old lady came up to me...

CHEERS

I always shoot at least 300-600 images per wedding... depending on the size, etc. Weddings can be a nightmare but you seemed to handle it well.. can we see some of your shots.. I am interested

I know I would be slightly discomforted if a photographer came to my wedding stoned.

Well, you don't necessarily need more cards. I mean, couldn't you bring a laptop and just download them onto it? But, don't let anyone see you do it....they'll want to see the shots right then. Sounds like you handled it though.

Now...how 'old' was this lady?

I've said it before and I'll say it again: NeatImage is the new cross processing.

Just shot a wedding on Thursday, got home at 10 pm, and spent then until 7.30 in the morning fixing the underexposure on every single indoor shot, almost 230 of them, because I forgot to turn off the flash compensation I had set earlier for some test shots. Thank god for RAW!

In that particular photo I'm not very fond of the lightning. The light seems to be very hard and to came from the side. If I was doing the photo I would placed the light more up and diffused.

Because it's supposed to be a bride, pure, heaven like tipe of photos and lightning. But the pose and the angle you shoot it's very good.

I think wedding photography it's not a big deal but you must take precautions because you will have only one chance for doing some photos, because it will knot happen again.

And yes a lot of memory card is needed.

I allways shoot weddings with a friend fotog (he is also a pro and a professor of photography) unless is a very simple job with only a few persons. Olherwise you will not have time to cover everything by yourself wothought letting some importat issues pass along. We usually take between 600 to 1000 photos per wedding if it's more classical, but if it's like photojournalistic way it can add up to 1500 photos. Of this we then make a selection beeteween 500 to 750 to give them to choose their prints.
