Anyway, was an awesome experience. Ben (from Fusion Photography) is a great guy. He certainly knows his stuff... has heaps of gear and gave me pretty much a free reign to photograph anything I wanted (as long as I didn't get in his way). I went through two and a half 8GB cards... probably around 750 photos. Ben was changing cards what seemed like every few mintutes... he's pretty click happy! :)
A few things to remember:
- Tell people what to do, pretty much all the time
- Take many, many photos especially when in dim light with a slow shutter speed
- Have a lot of ideas of where to put people or the actions they should take
- Take detailed pictures of invitations, decorations, dresses, shoes, etc.
- Take photo of the dress hanging up, and shoes before they're put on.
- Take photos of the family dog :)
- Find a good room for the bride to get dressed in
- Show people how to stand/walk, loosen them up a bit
- Tell MC to mention the photos of the table as the last bit of "housekeeping"
- Get a flash that refreshes quickly...
- 17-50mm f/2.8 lens worked well, but need a longer lens occasionally
- Have plenty of (fast) memory cards
