I really love my job. Tonight I had the awesome opportunity to shoot Cameron and Ky, all their family and friends. So many nice people. I feel really lucky to be part of a couple’s weddings, because when they hire me I am usually a stranger and I really try to t do my best to make friends with everyone. I felt very accepted and liked by everyone and I really do appreciate it.
Its 3am, but i wanted to get some of these fun images up as soon as possible. I really hope you like them!
Beautiful!
This picture of this girl during the ceremony is a great example of how high ISO noise sometimes really doesnt matter. It was shot at 3200 and in this case, the noise gives it a really nice grainy look. I know many photographers who will add noise in post production to achieve this type of look.
This dude was going to town on the dance floor…HE WAS OFF THE HOOK!!!
These are just a very select few of the 1500+ images from the day. From what i have seen, I am very happy and excited for Cameron and Ky’s album. I will be posting the rest of the pictures on my viewing website shortly for everyone to see. Again thank you so much to everyone for making Cameron and Ky’s day so awesome. 
Another big thank you to Melissa, one of my photography mentorship students who shot with me today. She was a tremendous help. We thought it would be fun to take a picture together.
I am like…a lion…..or something…..is my head really that big? I mean…I have to put all this information somewhere, but look at the size of that thing!
If cannibals captured me (which would be impossible in the first place…we might as well start talking about building time machines or the like) and they decided to shrink my head down, it would be the size of a normal person’s head…so …..they wouldnt even try it.
Nice Pictures Michael. What Lens you did use for the ones inside?
I see a different style coming out that’s really cool! Love the candid of the child!!!!
What good pictures! It’s a neat thing to see them actually being taken and then see the end result. Thanks for the opportunity! The wedding was beautiful & the people were wonderful…now if my feet and back will ever forgive me… 🙂 Oh, that last picture is definitely a good example of perspectives at work. The picture was taken from a higher angle…and you were closer to the camera (actually, sort of in a pounce position…yeah, like a lion) so you would naturally look bigger. See? I’m putting my knowledge to work! ANYWAY. Thanks again for the opportunity! 🙂
I am really liking this new evolution of style!!! Some really great work Michael!
Well done.
Michael,
I saw the little girl and went right by it so I could see the other pictures of Cam and Ky, then I went back to show Tom, my husband and saw that the little girl is our niece, Millie.
She is Va’s (a bridesmaid) cousin.
Man you are so good at your job!
Michael, Like I told you last night, when Cameron told me your rates, I was a little surprised. Now I understand. You and your staff worked so hard and were very, very professionsl. Great job!!!!!!! Thank you.
I’m not sure that I made it clear….WELL WORTH THE MONEY!!!!!!!!
What a cool ring shot! I really like that…the picture of them walking out with petals (I think they are rose petals) flying and the one of the girl are so beautiful!!! As for your head, well, it’s not THAT big…it’s just the perspective and the fact that you have your mouth wide open that makes it look big…
very nice pictures. the little girl is so cute!!
who did his hair?
Thanks everyone for the comments- I really appreciate it. I used several lenses indoors (I think 6), but mostly 24-70 2.8 and 16-35 2.8, both Canon L Lenses. More changes to come, I can only implement a few new things at each wedding. Its exciting for me because I can see my new style in my mind, and I can see I am getting closer to it…not quite there yet. 🙂
WHERE ARE YOU FROM – GREAT JOB!
I’m loving the new things you are doing! The noise and grain in pic looks great! I think my fav is the one of them leaving though. For some reason, that is always one of my favorite shots. As always, you did a knock out job! Little jealous that I didn’t get a pic with you several weeks back……I can do a mean lion look too!! *wink*
Heather- Id like to see that! Hi Lynda- I am based in Tuscaloosa, Alabama but work all over the country. Thanks for coming!
