[QUOTE="Fat Fingers, post: 548370, member: 41715"] Kev try this ...wedding at 3 pm ..service over by 3.3o 1.5 hours for photos till meal at 5 pm. If speeches before meal they start at 4.30 and you only have 1 hr for photos. Hark ..all good comments...the couple have never been married before so don't know what to do ..someone must guide them and that's the photographers job. Its well established here that after the service it photo time ..I take about 8 family groups. Once they get the idea my wife can have a cue of 50 people wanting individual family photos. that's followed by B&G shots by the lake or whatever then inside for staircase/bedroom and off to the cake ...all done . Some couples love it and you can work easy but some exude an ora of unwillingness particularly from grooms who often don't want to get married/ want a cigarette / drink/ We call it bored groom syndrome ......... The most difficult to photograph are High Court Judges/policemen and factory workers ..anyone who tells people what to do all day or resents being told what to do by his boss ....Smokers are a pain in the ass add 30 min for fag breaks ....strange world. Best weddings are Polish weddings where the photos of B&G are done 2 hrs before the service ..just a few groups and casuals after [/QUOTE]
