We tremendously enjoyed a family wedding this weekend. Since this blog mainly focuses on photo technique and gear I'll be brief on the emotions. But it was something to behold.
So happy for my niece and her new husband, whom we fell in love with. 'nuf said.
As for photography, no hanging out at the periphery with my Canon and zooms for me this time. I sat in the middle of the row with my tiny Lumix, and only occasionally popped up using the rear screen. I totally enjoyed the entire day, and never felt like I should be 'documenting it'. Just shot what I saw. Fantastic.
Did this mean I missed some of my 'go-to' shots.? Yes, yes it did. Did that hurt? A bit.
But, at the end of the day, and end of a career, you realize that's not what matters. Being there, being present, and taking home a couple of nice images is the goal.
Mission accomplished.
