I shot Katie and Matt's wedding in June, you can view their online slideshow here. I love weddings, especially when the couple is so obviously in love and so obviously excited to be married to each other (it really makes my job easier). What was really fun about this one was that even though they had a ton of posed shots they wanted me to get, I also had time to "play" and get the really fun candids that capture the "moment". To me, that is what wedding photography is all about...capturing the real moments, not just being good at staging them. You can see the difference at a glance.
I "dragged the shutter" on this one, to give the sense of motion and create a mood. Does it work?

i definitely got the feeling of movement...but also a sense that these 2 were alone, if only for a moment...
Oh I love this! I need to learn how to drag the shutter! Funny enough I was trying to tell someone how to do it for their pics and yet I have never been able to do it myself! The blind leading the blind! LOL!
