Some shots from my wedding shoot
Such a special day
As a photographer that focuses mainly on documentary style photography, I was a bit nervous going into this shoot. About six months ago, a good friend of mine asked if I could be the photographer for his wedding.
I told him that the only way that I would agree to shoot the wedding is that if I was able to do it with my daughter and that we had complete control of how the photos were taken and how they look. One of the worst things about being a photographer is when you get a client that wants you to shoot how they want and not giving you the creative freedom to get the types of shots that you were hired to get.
I was glad that my friend allowed me and my daughter to have the creative freedom needed to get the shots that we wanted. The entire day was so special. It was special because I was able to document this day for one of my best friends here and that I was able to do this with my daughter as well.
I have been friends with this guy for about 11 years now and have seen the two kids that he has grow up. One thing I have noticed is that he loves his kids so much and it was so great to be able to document it for his family.
I have watched this little guy grow up since he was just a tiny little baby. When I was in school, I would watch his kids, so we have so many memories of him when he was just learning to walk and talk. Now he is getting all grown up and talking and he is just the cutest little guy ever.
The bride also has children from previous relationships and it was so cool to see all five of the kids getting along. I am really proud of my friend and the family that he is building. The love that they all have for each other was just so cool to see and it made the entire day easier for my daughter and I to document.
I have about 2500 pictures to go through and choose the best ones. My daughter has quite a few photos as well that she needs to go through. I normally don't like giving my clients a lot of photos because it can be overwhelming to them to receive so many, but it would be impossible for me to narrow these down too much. I think they will end up getting close to 600 photos once we are all done editing them.
Great shots. Do you shoot them with a filter or are those added on in the postwork?
Thanks man. I shoot them in RAW and then edit them in Lightroom afterwards.
Man, these photos are great. Out of 2500 photos, it's gonna be hard to pick the best ones. When I recently exchanged rings with my girlfriend, I spent a lot of time choosing the best ones from so many photos 😅
Ya, its gonna be a long week going through all these and editing the ones that I like. I hope the pictures that you got with your girlfriend turned out awesome.
Yeah we got some awesome photos, I shared some of them on Hive https://ecency.com/hive-138975/@incublus/happiest-day-of-my-life-hayatimin-en-mutlu-gunu-en-tr
Such a beautiful experience man. I wish you and her the best.
Thank you so much man. I wish the same 🙏
It would be so cool to visit you and take pictures of your wedding for you both.
Absulately! That would be great, man. I hope we can make it real. I'm thinking of inviting a lot of Hive users to my wedding. There might be a lot of people who can't come because of financial constraints, but if the price of Hive is a few dollars or more, why not?
They look very nice
I'm glad that you and your daughter pulled up something amazing
Keep up the good work!
Thank you. We really like how our photos turned out. We cant wait to give them to the bride and groom.
The love between a father and a daughter is very special, it is a bond that is very strong and you love your daughter the most in this world. You have edit all these pictures very well.
Thanks man. I appreciate it.
Most welcome dear.
Very awesome bro! I'm glad you and your daughter could work together on this special occasion! Love the pictures and can't wait to see what else you and your daughter took! Your friend will be thrilled with the photos you guys took!
Thanks man. Once I get the photos done edited, I am going to be putting together a book for them as well. Its gonna be a busy week.
Such cute shots! That first one especially just charmed me.
Thank you. That is one of my favorite shots as well. It was so cool seeing my friend get his little boy ready for the wedding.
It's moments like those that were always why I loved shooting weddings.
They are such special memories.
That's some awesome and heart touching shots you've got at your friend's wedding :)
Thank you. We like how they have turned out so far.
What a expressive photos, every photo is telling a story and emotion
Thanks. That was the goal. I love capturing emotions.
I could feel the love and warmth in all the pictures, you and you daughter sure pulled it off.
Good job!
Thank you. I am really proud of how awesome my daughter did.
I can understand it because I have seen it in many functions. But I believe that photographers need the freedom to bring the best shots of a function.
Ya, photographers need creative freedom to create the types of shots they want.
Great shots man!
Thanks homie
