Re: OMG !been ask to do a wedding !

no, no other photographer it was either i do it or they just have snapshots from the guests. [no pressure then ha ha]


but it was a blast and i and the bride was really pleased with the pics.

but i know exactly what you feel like and we guys would help you through it.

and the best thing is to look at other wedding photographers sites to get ideas for pics and you will be suprised when you look though, as some of them are shall we say 'very ordinary'.

Let us know your decision

I have turned down a few people for the same reason - they love my shots but I am not comfortable with the idea of shooting a wedding. I am tempted to do one as a back up photographer to get a feel for it but not have sole responsibility. It isn't an area I normally shoot hence why I turned them down.

If you do decide to take it on, be up front about your level of expertise in this area - oh and start practising

Good luck in whatever you decide
