[QUOTE="zsooz, post: 331502, member: 13099"] I have been persuaded to do a friends wedding- because she saw the pics I took at a friends' wedding the previous year- I have been taking portraits and doing small family photoshoots for a little while now- the previous wedding was very informal- there were no posed group shots etc- it was very candid type of photography. This friend wants quite a mix but she definitely wants group stuff in a very short alloted time. My concern is- in the run up I have been getting as much practise in as possible, and have travelled to the venue- my concerns are there group shots are not coming out in focus at all- even when I took my friend to the venue I felt her pics were awful- the few I shot of her. :( I work in manual mostly changing occasionally to A and S modes if I need to photograph running children/lighting changes quickly) I have the AF set to AF-C/ with focus tracking lock on(short) AF-A (when I shoot with flash inside at night seems to yield better results -Flash set to REAR) I have tended to shoot groups at roughly F7 using- Nikon D90 Nikon D7000 lenses Nikon-1.8 35mm Nikon-17-55mm 2.8 GED I have borrowed a Tokina/N AT-X Pro DX 11-16mm f/2.8 from a friend for possibly the group shots of shots inside the venue (little tight) My friend couldn't be nicer as she's said it's the photos I take of children that she loves and that's what she's like lots of- but I am loathed to disappoint her and don't want to give her a poor selection. Any advice would be very gratefully received.:D [/QUOTE]
