On May 12, 2012, I have a great opportunity to photograph my friends, Dave and Karly, wedding.  I have to say it was one of the most well planned and fun weddings I have ever been too.  The setting was prefect at the Lethbridge Lodge with the big bay windows and the natural light flowing in.    Even though I was a guest at the actual ceremony I was still was able to get a few great shots of them during the vows.  I did not use a flash as they already had a photographer present and just used the natural light from the windows.  Shutter speed was still an issue but I think with the time and the opportunity I was able to capture some of the great moments.  


The reception was interesting as it was in the same place as the ceremony.  The lighting was totally different but I was able to fully use and play with my flash.  I used my 35mm lens for the whole reception and was able to again get the shots I needed.  


Post production was a lot of fun.  I used a few new techniques in the pictures which is always great to keep the PS skills up.   All in all this was a great shoot as it broke up the whole "wedding" shoot into a manageable section to work on the finer points of photography.  


Thank you to Dave and Karly for letting me shoot such an awesome moment in their relationship and lives.
