Wedding at St. Vincent De Paul's
I had to photograph a wedding in a Catholic church, (St Vincent De Paul in Huntington Beach – photographers be warned!) where I was stationed behind the organist with strict instructions not to move anywhere and never to use flash. The organist even told me to move over a little at one point, saying “You belong over there.” I used a 70-200 2.8 for most shots and a 50mm for a few wide. We got a mere 15 minutes after the ceremony to shoot posed portraits and the priest had the nerve to tell me where to position myself using the 50MM lens. He presumed I was too far back. It was amazing but things turned out OK in spite of it all. My wife saved me on this rather hurried wedding with some great shots outside while I was stuck in my photographer’s “spot.” What brings this all up is the shot I got of the couple kneeling before the Virgin Mary statue. There was a black pole (candle holder?) in my way, but by leaning as far over as I dared, I managed to get it over to the right of the kneeling couple where it served almost as a natural frame. I’m sure I looked like I was about to fall over.

This was one of the most enjoyable weddings I ever photographed. Actually, I never had an “unpleasant wedding” but this one seemed to be made in heaven as two families of single parents, obviously all in love, were joined in Irvine. This photo was taken at a local golf resort.
The bride took a specialty Antique “limo” to the wedding. The driver later poured them a toast in the back seat.
I decided, though the original looks great, to enhance this wedding picture a little bit in Photoshop. I erased a few moles, blurred some areas a little, whitened her teeth and the pearls, and finally, applied two lights, one on the flowers and one on the bride’s back to create a little accent highlighting.
