Mr. and Mrs. Manglicmot

It's already been six months and I just now got around to posting the pictures from Alf's wedding.

Yeah yeah, I know, wth took me so long? Well, for one, this is how these pictures looked at first:

You see, once Alf got me the link for the photographer's website, I tried the "right click, save image" trick to try and swipe them, but that option had been disabled and I got some pop-up saying the images were copyrighted or whatever.

But you know they can't keep a good brotha down, so I did a screen capture and cropped it down to just the image. Which is what you see here:

Yeah I know. Clever, isn't it? Clever like a fox!

Anywho... One of the things I'm always thinking about when I take photos of people is whether I want them to pose for me, or if I want to try to catch them in a candid moment. Personally, I think I prefer capturing a candid moment when a person can be themselves without being self-conscious of the presence of the camera.

But sometimes, you just gotta get everyone together for some group shots...

This one makes me laugh. What are we all looking at?

No, really, what ARE we looking at? And dammit, who's got the Shocker showing?!

This should be a movie poster or something.

Here are some of the candids. I enjoy how these images look more natural and less forced, so I guess I do prefer candids over posed shots. It's just so dam hard to capture the perfect candid moment though...

This was taken as we were waiting for our turn to walk down the aisle to start the ceremony.

I like the "make people pose and take a picture of them with a different camera" trick. This is a good technique to use when you want a posed shot but wanna make it look semi-candid.

I think this is the above picture taken by the camera we were all looking at.
