I have shot a large number of weddings over the last couple years but I must admit that I have not attended one as a guest for sometime.

This happened yesterday, Saturday 21s February 2015, for Nathanael and Samantha’s Wedding in Sydney.

When “packing” for the weekend in Sydney, I wanted to pack a camera and a few lenses with me, but knowing the rush that wedding photographers go through during a wedding, I decided to keep it quite and enjoy tet moment.

I packed one camera and one lens: my Leica M240 and a 50mm Summilux ASPH.

I have been using the Leica M system for a couple years now but my focusing on the rangefinder is still to improve, even though I have shot a couple of weddings with the Leica, this time I didn’t have the stress of missing the shot.

Nate and Sami are a young couple, not the youngest couple that I have shot but certainly one of the most mature.

I may be a bit biased, being part of the family, but I must say that when I have seen a lot of beautiful brides and handsome grooms, these two are so gorgeously in love that you can not help but love them. They are so in sync that you can not imagine them one without another.

They may be still very young but they are so mature and down to Earth. They are so much fun and they are so caring about each other and about others.

I have heard uncountable speeches, during my wedding photography career, but I have to say that Samantha’s speech, on her wedding night. was by far one that will remain in my mind.

Congratulations again Nathanael and Samantha. You are such a gorgeous couple and you have such a wonderful family.

God bless.

 

Exif for photographers:

As a guest, I did not move around a lot not to distract the official photographers (I think there was 25 viagra generico prezzo..).
In the Church, my ISO was locked at 1600 and I shot wide open most of the time (f/1.4).

Outside, when stopped down, my minimum aperture was f/2.5.

At the Reception, I shot most of the time wide open and for groups shots, stopped down o f/2-2.5. My ISO was set on Auto and flew all the way up to 6400 for most of the shots.
