Do we have any photographers?

I need one for the wedding and I wanted to see if we had a freestater that does that sort of thing.  Like to keep the business in the community whenever possible!

I know I read something about a photographer moving... I think he ended up in the Seacoast... and then he was 'never heard from again'.

I will search the boards.

I don't do weddings, sorry.
Too much risk, a wedding happens only once. If for some reason the photographer gets something wrong it really sucks to be that guy.

Do what my niece did.  Leave disposable cameras on all of the tables at the reception then confiscate them at the end.

Be careful... drunken frat brothers can leave strange pictures. ;D

I have a couple of old friends who both work for newspapers that didn't like to photograph weddings, for the same reason you stated. Since they kept being asked, they teamed up to work weddings. They started this about 10 years ago, and are up to about eight weddings each year. They get great candid shots, plus there's back up on those big, once-in-a-lifetime group photos. Know anyone who'd work with you on it?

Many years ago, never having seen film developed and printed, I went with a friend and his girlfriend to observe him process some film she had take of a friend's wedding.  I guess there was something wrong with some solution as all of the pictures came out with rust spots on them. She was in consolable!  They were the only picture taken at the wedding. I watched their relationship fall apart in about 5 minutes.

I'v only shot two weddings before. At the second one my buddies new wife had a friend of her's do B&W while I did the color snapshot type stuff. Having a partner is a good idea, the more cameras the better.
I just don't like photographing people much. It's just a hobby for me.

And drunken sorority sisters can leave some really good pictures  ;D

By the way, I was expecting this to be in relation to the photo contest the Union Leader is running.

Great opportunity to submit pro freedom related pictures.

Yeah, we want to do this too.  I just want a pro or a really good amateur to get the big money shots.  You know, the ones you get a do nothing with after all the posing with this person and that person and so on?  ^_^
