Well, I am being a shadow photographer!
A friend of mine who is a professional photographer asked me to come with her and shadow her with my camera. I'm supposed to take every shot she does as well as any I see as well.
Did I say this was a wedding photography shot?? See, I am nervous. I've never ever done anything like this before.
Last week we met with the bride at a lovely old mansion that is now a bed and breakfast and took pics of her in her gown in different rooms and poses and lighting. it was exciting and fun and I was happy with most of my pics.
The thought of being at the actual wedding is stressing me. I hope I do okay and don't trip on my dress and drop my camera in the punch bowl or do something else incredibly dumb.
Pray for me.
I want to do this, I'm thankful for the opportunity but golly, I'm getting very nervous!

thanks for that vote of confidence!
I agree, it is a great opportunity!
One I thought I'd never have.
Thanks for the water idea, that makes sense but I don't want to be running
to the bathroom when I should be taking pictures either.
I'll have to balance that out.
I was worked with my brother who does events. He had me setting off little sparklers all at the same time as the wedding couple came through the reception doors. I was scared I would miss the que to press the remote. I managed it right on time, and just know you can too.
have fun and don't stress!
regards,gayle
I had fun tonight!
I cannot believe what a blast it was taking pics at this wedding!
I was on my feet for 4 hours taking pics but it was amazing.
I hope I have this kind of opp again.
I'll write more tomorrow!
