So tingas most of you know I have multiple jobs because well I am Mexican.

So I have been helping my brother who is a professional photographer (or we jokingly say phootografer) this Saturday with a wedding. I usually set the groups up for shots, make sure all his equipment is ready, etc etc.

This Saturday I was expecting to same routine. Until he slapped his old Canon 5D in my hand & smiled at me, "Get me some good shots." I stood dumbfounded, as I am an amature photographer with my Fuji FInePix & do mostly still life. I was scared as hell because I didn't want to disappoint him & didn't want to take bad pictures of a once in a lifetime event.

He threw me with the bridal party & he went with the groomsmen. It was difficult to take pictures because there was low light & I did not have a flash & just the low line lense that came with the camera. I was hiding in corners of the room getting the best shots I could.
t ISO
Lesson 1 never ever wear high heels when shooting a 8 hour wedding, IT SUCKS!

The pictures came out pretty good, I still need to learn how to adjust the ISO & I won't be as nervous.
As soon as my brother posts the 6 CF cards we shot I will post some of my work.

He actually said I was pretty damn good & at a high 90% to his level.

RAWK!!!

Silly Valz, professional photographers don't do weddings.

This is filler text.

That sounds pretty awesome! Your feet must have been in pain though, haha. Sounds like you didn't have too much to worry about since they came out well.

For some reason, I pictured a scene from a action movie, with you gunning down an entire wedding cerermony.

Made me laugh - in a twisted way

There is one image that I really love. I happened to catch the bride with her back to me & caught the light from a near by light source that made her dress almost glow.
