It's just weird. By the time I finally saw the bride, it was almost dark, way passed the planned meeting time. Then my camera indicated that I had already got over thousands files on my card! I should change a new card! But I felt so time pressed and just couldn’t find the time to do so. Fortunately I could still take pictures... go card! So we started doing the first – sight and I grabbed some killer shots! Those were the kind of shots that when you snapped them, you knew they were the keepers! Then my camera started acting funny…there was a huge shutter lag. It took a second or two for the shutter to open and close after I pressed the release button. Oh, man! I thought to myself, I got to learn how to anticipate. Then it’s time to do the bridal and it was so late and dark outside we had to do it inside…we were inside a small shopping mall…the lighting was no good but there weren’t many people around and there were some nice paintings on the wall…we could use them…I was thinking…
Then I realized it's a dream…a big sigh of relief. I was dreaming about a wedding in southern California the end of this month!
It happens…sometimes I dreamed about the weddings I was going to shoot. And on the way before each wedding, I will get the same butterfly-in-the-stomach feeling…thinking about how to get shots, etc. But once I am on site, the excitement kicks in and I simply enter the groove…walk, look, snap, all happen naturally.
What a great job!
