The reason I was taking my tripod as I thought it could be used as a stand for 1 of my flash units and is easy to pack up. I will be flying to the destination and I need to be aware of how much gear I am taking. Those softboxes and umbrellas look good. And yes I was &quot;thinking&quot; of using it for fill in light with BG but it is good to know that I will not need this. I can understand the concerns about it being on the beach, but I am hoping it will be a calm day and I will not be changing my lenses on the beach due to the sand issue. I will have to pick the right lens on each camera (D600 + 16-35 &amp; D800E 80-400) is what I am thinking. I am also unsure if the whole wedding will be on the beach for the entire time. I need to sit down with the Bride this coming week and discuss details, I have sent her an email asking what photos and of whom is required. PS I do not go forum hunting and try to stick to this one as I know most people and I have seen soem amazing photographs from people that know, I am just a hobbyyist and know that there are alot of professional photog's here that make a living from it and can offer me great advice which I will trust.</blockquote>
