Are you always satisfied with a pictures you have taken? I am not. Moreover, it is hard damn difficult to realised while you are processing your pictures that you have missed that shot or I should have been shooting differently, from other perspectives, with other gear and other and other... Every wedding is different, every moment is different and I dont know how to be ready for those changes. I wish I would but that day I was thinking that my 35 mm lens will do the job for me and indeed it does but I missed in my opinion all other shots like event place, general shot, ambiance, details. At the end I have this one which I love. I love this intimate moment, the look of this little girl at the wedding dress and I hope that this picture will stay long in the memory of bride and groom.
about that picture
Reflections
My favorit theme - reflections. You might take whatever meaning of this word. It could be reflections as a process of thinking, or reflections as a a reflection in a mirror or in water. In any case i love it. I love reflections as it gives a multidimensional space within the cadre, plus it leads you to the subject slowly, your eyes flow slowly from the details to the main point or vice vresa. So, reflections - my favorite point.
Tears and smiles
I'm still confused. Wedding day it's a day with a smiles or tears, or tears and smiles, or smiles through the tears or tears through the smiles? Whatever. It's important day and very sensual. The day when your emotions are condensed and words comes not easy. However i like this day and i hope you will enjoy my pictures from that day too. Now about this shot - yesterday i was lucky to shoot the wedding of Céline and Julien. Their emotions, families, their tears and smiles. This photo has been taken in a very short moment while Céline came out of the room to check her hairstyle and her dad just stood for a while to admire his beautifoul daughter... And... Click and I've got it!
I was afraid that i've missed the focus point and it is the case but i have no time to change my aperture value to have more depth of the field, however, i've got this image and i'm happy to keep this moment for my clients.
Thank you Céline, thank you Julien for your smiles and tears during that spacial day, thanks for this chance to be with you guys! I wish you all the best and more smiles than tears!
