the reception, part one

 

Film. Kodak Portra 400nc

Hats off to all wedding photographers – this is hard work!  But one thing is for certain – there is no shortage of beautiful things, food, and people to shoot at a wedding and reception.

I received more than a few odd stares from folks as I manually focused, clicked the shutter, and manually advanced the film.  It was worth it though!  I love the results.

I have a couple more shots from the reception that I’ll share with you tomorrow…..

    Beautiful. I love your photographs of the musical instruments. They immediately paint the sphere in a way. Beautiful flowers too!ReplyCancel
