Wedding

Witness · 8th October 2004

My cousin's wedding last month, didnt really get alot of chances to shoot, as he already had a photographer in his wedding package. As a brother, had to help him out more with the wedding than juz take photos haha....

feel free to comment on ways which i may improve (on my quickshots)

shots 9 - 12 were from the wedding dinner held in malaysia for my cousin's relative's there....

the workflow there is very difference in a sense tt there is little order during the dinner....very diff for coordination...

the wedding cake in b&w looks quite unappetizing

think cake in colors look nicer.
tho the cake is fake and not suuppose to be appetizing. hee

hmmmm.....will do something about it.....too many diff coloured lights at the dinner....hard to get a good shot of the cake in colour...

anything else???

thanks for the comments anyway...

cheers!!

like wht Paul said, the B+W cake is not nice.
no 8 is nice.. like the pose and the tone.
no 6 is ..... joss stick can be used for many purposes. some obvious ones don't really tie with your topic..
sometimes when we take pics, we have to take into consideration of the ocassion too.

Hey, i like no. 1 pretty much. Usually shots (even from pros) would be done with some ambient light from the window. And the light is pretty too.

Witness · 12th October 2004

thanks alot for the comments...hope to improve here...so tt probably i will be able to turn out better works the next time i do weddings...

the joss sticks thing is part of a greater collage in print...thanks for the comment...shouldnt put it alone....

Hi Witness,

Good work.

What was your lighting setup? Just on-camera with diffuser, or did you also have a diffused slave off to the side?

.

Witness · 13th October 2004

i went ambient as much as possible for the still life shots..... the rest where done with sb-600.....

thanks alot guys///

Sad to say this but only the 1st 2 pics of the still life works for me. As some have said, b&w is not the ideal medium for wedding especially for chinese wedding. For church wedding and candids, maybe b&w will work better.

Sorry for a bit OT here.

As for pic #5, I always have the dilemma in the situation dunno whether should I capture the couple or the one opposite them since they are facing face to face, I just cant get all of them in the pic. Is there anyone here can advise me about this?

Thanks.
